Sometimes I turn around and look back,
to times I wish would once come back.
Days of laughter fun and love,
days I felt my heart soar like a dove.
Days when life was at its best,
days when I forgot the rest.
Days when the sun shone so bright,
or days filled with cheer and delight.
But what was life without ups and downs?
And sometimes these smiles were replaced by frowns.
Days when dark clouds threatened to lurk,
or days when plans failed to work.
Days of tears falling with the rain,
days filled with sorrow, grief or pain.
Days when emotions struggled to be free,
or when the weight of things became to heavy.
As I sit here, reminiscing this life I had,
times when I was happy, angry, sad or mad.
Things changed, but i moved above it all,
Affect me? They did, but I moved on.
And sometimes, things weren't what they seemed,
they were much different, than what they appeared to be.
Now as I'm older, I've begun to realize,
maybe life is just a collection of the most beautiful lies.
