no fun, is it

i don’t plan to frighten you
woth my long winded tales
of the fears of the future
and growing older

so take it with a grain of salt
not all that is predicted
will eventually come true
the rest is up to you

look back on your past mistakes
they will serve true
to the actions you take
going forward through

best not to linger
on unchangeable things that
end up keeping you awake
in the middle of the night

don’t let mornings be ruined
before they get a chance to start
don’t take my words too seriously
or keep them close too your heart
