When it comes to life,

things don't always go

the way you want it.

Plans and goals are

written carefully,

yet misfortune occurs

and mess it all up.

Living to the fullest

for now seems useless,

though watching it all

pass me by seems

quite awfully right.

Sure I'd get left behind,

but I'll spend time

preaparing and trying

to make better decisions,

as I let life pass me by.
