    Life

    Sometimes when it rains, it pours
    Sometimes it leaves you wanting for more

    Sometimes there’s happiness right outside your door
    Sometimes you have the key, but just aren’t sure

    Sometimes you know what life has in store
    Sometimes you’re just drifting washing up ashore

    Sometimes life’s oozing through every pore
    Sometimes just breathing is a chore

    Sometimes you’re winning, not keeping score
    Sometimes you’re knocked out, down on the floor

    Sometimes you’re on a high, not really you anymore
    Sometimes the mirror shows the real you, flaws galore

    Sometimes you’re in the spotlight the crowd chanting encore
    Sometimes the joke is on you, your ego bruised, battered, and sore

    Sometimes it’s déjà vu, you’ve seen it before
    Sometimes you’re eager, just itching to explore

    Sometimes….
    Just sometimes
