Book of Life.

Minutes seem like days
Days are like an eternity
A story so edless
Yet it ends; But now
The pages are turning.

With each chapter
Old anecdote; new event
Lessons to be learned
Never cease to forget
These pages are turning.

Life, hope, truth, trust
Faith, pride, love, lust
Pain, hate, lies, guilt
Laugh, cry, learn, die
Pages forever turning.

Take a few chances
Think hard and well
Because every blank page
Is for a story you must tell
To keep these pages turning.

But alas! The world turns silent
As the seconds following tragedy
This neverending book, so different
Once you finish there's no going back
The pages just stop turning.
