Get It Together

Life is like a pendulum swinging forward and back

An emotional roller coaster stuck upon the track

Though friends may part from the road their upon

The friendship they’ve shared will never be gone

Yet some will never allow this feeling to grow

They never will let their softer side show

They live life like leaves scattered in the wind

Only to know the turbulence that will win in the end

Take care not to be one who learns to regret

Swallow your foolish pride and get what you can get

Grab onto any thread that may one-day tether

Cause one by himself can never get it together
