The Beginning of the End
When you are born,
It's like the beggining of the end
Or the end of the beginning
You start in life so new and free
You are welcomed and loved
You are cared for and taught
Sometimes you have to teach yourself
Sometimes life's spanking spoon is there to
Straighten you
Sometimes you are left bended
But you still have to go up the staircase
Or at least try too
You meet friends and lovers along the way
You win trophies and lose battles
You share and receive
You dare and believe
Sometimes you look down your life
And you wonder how you got there
Sometimes you look up
And continue wishing and dreaming
Up and down the stairway of life
The further you go,
The closer to the end you get.
