Life Can Be A Little Cruel

Life can be a little cruel at times, With all it's twists and turns. And though there's plenty of warning signs, Oft times you will get burned. There's pain, and strife, and lots of tears, To shed along the way. Sometimes the sun just never clears, The dark grey clouds away. And all around you people will fall, And yes while in their prime. But you never see it on the wall, Yet it becomes their time. Look at old photographs and see, Just how many have gone away. Someday it will be you and me, No, we, are not allowed, to stay.
