Time Flies

Playing hide and seek
I climbed my grandmas’ old pecan tree
From below I could see my brother and sister
Slowly they started to grow before my eyes
What once were small children are now teenagers
Is that what it will feel like when I grow old?
I’ll watch as my children grow up and start to leave the nest
Will I hold them back or let them fly?
Why I wonder do I watch the world like I’m not a part of it?
Maybe I’m not and I’m just here to be
Maybe I was sent here to witness the good and the bad
To know how the life cycle goes round and round
Past mistakes continue to be repeated
Instead of learning a lesson we continue to try to find a way
Using the same method but choosing a different route
Once I grow old will I regret all the things I have done in my past?
What choice have I yet to make that will steer my future?
Will I go with a clear conscious or one filled with anger and hate?
At this moment I don’t know and I don’t care
Because I have not crossed that bridge yet and I will one day
But not today, or tomorrow but some day
For now I will live my life taking one step at a time
Getting as much life as I can, for we only get one life to live
