Life

That 12 year old again...
Life is a roller coaster,
That will always end.
A branch that has numerous twigs sprouting,
Each one predicts your outcome,
For months or years to come.
Blossoms for your children,
Leaves for love and aging for excitement.
But beware you could always go straight down that branch,
Until you wake up a shriveled old man and think I’ve wasted my life.
Life is short,
Life is what you want it to be.
