Life

Life...is confusing.
When we were younger, and things were simpler,
We didn't understand the troubles of the adults.
We didn't understand the reasoning of teenagers.
We were small, laughing, care-free...children.

Life...is harsh.
While we got older, things got complicated,
We began to see why our parents fought...drank...
We began to see why teens broke away from their parents.
We were young, smiling, normal...kids.

Life...is unrelenting.
When we are teens, and things are so much more than they seem.
We know why our parents fought...and why some mistakes are unforgivable.
We know why we savor time with friends, with people we love.
We are tense, talkative, tenacious...teens.

Life...will get better.
As we get older, and we work through our problems.
We will understand our parent's mistakes, learn and grow from them.
We will shake our heads at teens before pointing them in the right direction.
We will be kind-hearted, happy, successful...adults.
