Absolute vigor and stress,

Life and love and total freedom- 

With no chance to be anything less, 

What else could you ever want?

Maybe more than we can handle,

Chances and opportunities and more,

Sometimes an occasional scandal,

Never anything you thought it would be,

Everything and nothing all at once,

The future and past, 

Mixed up in a crunch,

At least we know that nothing could ruin the truth,

Soon though we see, 

Not all is as it could be,

Everything changes,

And the winds of change  push life's stages,

Still, it's a simple song which all men sing,

To wander and whisper and listen and ring, 

To pace and to run, and to soar in the sky,

And to ever chase after the one final high.
