My Book Of Life
Every night, a page is turned
As we process what we learned
And morning comes, a fresh new day
With that day, a new blank page
Waiting and ready for what you write
Whether tales of triumph or of plight
Waking up to go to school
To see my friends and act like fools
To learn something new that sparks my mind
Perhaps a new passion I will find
At martial arts, I toil and train
Knowing my efforts are not in vain
Surrounding myself with loved ones, of blood or not
Feeling love, loyalty, joy; counting the blessings I’ve got
Every day is a new page in your life book
Adventures and simple pleasure, for those we look
Even conflict and tales of woe
Will ever shape the world we know
And someday, never knowing how or when, from losses or wins
When the next page is turned a new chapter begins
Because with each page that turns and each day that goes past
I know I am smarter, stronger, and better each day than the last
The book of life is full of boundless possibilities;
Take your aspirations, write them into realities
