My Journey Is Mine

by C Cattaway   Aug 5, 2013


A journey is a journey, whichever path you take.
Life is still exciting, whatever rules you break.
Love can be a challenge, even if it runs smooth.
You cannot make a lie turn round, whichever way you move.

A coin is still two-sided, no matter how it lands.
A job is never finished, unless you use both hands.
A heart can still be broken, even though it's inside.
You cannot run from your regrets, no matter where you hide.

A wall will hold a ceiling, when connected to a floor.
You have the chance like anyone, but not if it's a chore.
You cannot cheat a cheater, and a gambler never wins.
You cannot kid a kidder, though you'll tire of running rings.

You'll never see the world, if all you do is sit and dream.
You'll always see the bad side, no matter what you've seen.
You cannot make them love you, simply be all that you are,
For those who truly matter, will never be too far.

You mustn't wish for better, but be thankful for your life.
You cannot force a marriage. Please be gentle with your wife.
You cannot take away the pain, but learn to live fulfilled.
You cannot heal a wounded soul, but hear the hole it drilled.

It's possible to be a friend, even though you don't speak.
You mustn't speak with venom tongue, just because someone's weak.
A journey is a journey, even if the path seems rough.
Being strong, not being hard, is what will keep you tough.

No matter where life takes you, you can always try again.
Even the brightest rainbow can shine, against the rain.
Always see the funny side. Life is never easy.
Share the pain, but share the fun. Please don't ever tease me?

My journey is my journey, and I try to travel light.
I'd love to know which path to take, but only I can write
The story that I'll end up telling, when I reach the end.
Aim for goals. Mine's simple. I hope I've been a good friend.
