Life's Journey

No one can control
The running river of life
Its course never ends.

Who I am, is what
You make out of what you see.
Always judging looks.

Who I want to be,
Is what I strive to become,
Working ever hard.

Who i will be, though,
Isn't up to anyone
It's not our control

We go through our lives
Expecting the goods and bads
But forgetting most.

By the end of it,
Can you remember any?
Does it fade away?

No one ever knows
Where life's journey will take them.
But we hold on hope.

That someday we'll know
Everything once again,
And go on in peace.
