The Journey



Everything started at the speed of light

Happiness was at its ultimate height

The world seemed so different then

Destiny was written with my own pen



There were never questions of why

Just a desire to reach out and touch the sky

It was an existence without strife

All I ever needed was my life



In an instant time became slow

And my mind disrupted the flow

For I could see enough to know

That the light no longer had its glow



Quickly my steps faded

And quickly I became jaded

My happiness soon became pain

With my tears turning to rain



Memories of life before became dim

Then I ended it all on a whim

Because something inside me popped

The journey has forever stopped
