Struggling

What can I say that will have real meaning?

I mean aren't we all just sort of the same?

We want to learn and experience everything

Walking and faltering through life in a maze

We stumble and fall and scratch our knee

Experience is called for as our teacher

As everything is etched into our memory

It is up to us whether we will become stronger, or weaker

Learning from mistakes, they say, builds character

As will broken hearts and ruthless friends take part

We cannot take control as the idle dreamer

But we can turn simple words into works of art
