Life is unpredictable
We try to fill it with things
That makes us happy or sad
But nothing can help us predict our future

We think that everything is set to fate
So we fight against the grain
Or do we sit and wait for events to happen
As they may appear to be

Our lives are what we make of them
Or so we are told
But the truth is, many of us don’t even care
To ensure it is this way

Time, like a ticking clock
Cycles us through life anew
From start to finish
In a constant circle
