The Path of Life

In the beginning, we are but a spark,

A flicker of light in the dark,

Born into a world unknown,

A journey we must embark alone.

The path ahead is shrouded in mist,

Unknown challenges that must be missed,

But with each step, we gain new sight,

And slowly, the darkness turns to light.

We learn to walk, we learn to run,

To laugh, to play, to have some fun,

We make friends, we make memories,

And life becomes a beautiful tapestry.

As we grow, we face new tests,

Trials that put us to the test,

We learn to love, we learn to hate,

And life becomes a balancing act.

We find our passions, we find our way,

We dream big, we seize the day,

We work hard, we take our chance,

And life becomes a thrilling dance.

But with every high, there is a low,

A moment that makes us feel alone,

A loss, a hurt, a bitter blow,

That shakes us to the very bone.

We cry, we scream, we curse the sky,

But slowly, we learn to dry our eyes,

We find the strength to carry on,

And life becomes a beautiful song.

We find new love, we find new friends,

We mend our heart, we make amends,

We rediscover the joy of life,

And learn to cherish every moment, every strife.

And as we look back on our journey so far,

We realize that we've come so far,

We've lived, we've loved, we've learned to grow,

And our story continues, with so much more to know.

So let us embrace the path of life,

With all its twists and turns, its joy and strife,

Let us cherish every moment, every breath,

And leave a legacy that will outlast our death.

For life is a journey, a precious gift,

And we are but travelers, adrift,

But with each other, we find our way,

And together, we create a brighter day.
