Birthday candles, dance recitals, family dinners,
From our failures to championship winners.
Our lives are filled of moments big and small.
Who's to say which moments matter most of all?

Sipping tea I reminisce,
Of old times, which make me this.
Playing tag in the front yard.
Spelling tests that were way too hard.

Cloudy grey skies with raindrop tears.
Crashing thunder, pondering fears.
Pushing past the pressure.
Following rainbows, finding treasure.

Snowy night sledding down our hill.
Hot chocolate gazing out the windowsill
Warn in love walking hand in hand.
Beachy days toasting in the sand.

I'm made of failures and success.
Then there's moments I take recess.
Climb up and up the roller coaster.
The final exhale of it all over.

There's times that people just won't see,
Sunsets alone creating make believe.
The hours spent to that final chapter,
Then what happens after?
