Rock On
For L.C. Schäfer's unofficial rogue challenge
This is a song to my younger self, written for L.C. Schäfer's unofficial challenge, linked below. Thanks for the inspiration!
*
Julie, you are an awkward child,
Never out of line, and never wild.
Late bloomers flower just the same.
Just know that you won’t stay so lame.
*
So many wins and so many losses.
A revolving door of spouses and bosses.
Keep on rocking, rock on
Life endures ‘til you’re gone.
*
Julie, you will find someone to love,
Love that you should grab hold of,
You'd best believe in many chances,
Because of future circumstances.
*
So many wins and so many losses.
A revolving door of spouses and bosses.
Keep on rocking, rock on
Life endures ‘til you’re gone.
* No spoiler now and no alert.
Just know you will get past the hurt.
Reach out now and make some friends.
Don’t you leave ‘til the party ends.
Someday, you will be someone great.
Keep on trying. Just you wait.
*
So many wins and so many losses.
A revolving door of spouses and bosses.
Keep on rocking, rock on (rock on).
Keep on rocking, rock on, (rock on).
Life endures - don’t be withdrawn.
Life endures - You take the baton.
Rock on Julie, rock on.
Rock on!
