Didn't start out this way,
There was love,
Laughter, happiness,
Many crazy days.
Hedge jumping, apple scrumping,
Door knocking,
Brooking jumping, Hatton visiting,
Kiss chasing.
Life is a game and not the fun kind
There's no reset button and no extra life.
Why is it someone can be here one minute then gone the next day?
Because life is a bit hard you say?

Noticing my room is a mess
My energy cannot be spent on the trivial
Instead it is spent on the vital:
Getting up, sitting down, eating, breathing,
