One cannot help but look far behind

at all the mistakes and failures made.

There's also good times for me to find

to cherish before my days begin to fade.

Not everyone can manage to be perfect

we all make our fair share of mistakes.

Days do turn out better than we predict

those days are rare, so look out for fakes.

Good times never last, neither does the bad

as everything ends; both a blessing and curse.

The thought might make one happy or sad

yet it's the truth even though it's perverse.

No one wants life to the end, call it quits

so enjoy it all, both the misses and hits.
