It's always something

It's always something
when it comes to life
you could have everything
and you could have nothing
what do you want to make of it?
how can it happen?
what makes you happy?
what wrong with this picture?
I feel dumbed on
But I'm good at that
give it to me!

It's always something
when I try and everything goes wrong
so much pain
so much suffering
Can I help it?
Can I make a difference?
what will it take?

It's always something
when little girls smile
ask you questions about life
that you don't want to answer now
can I do this?
who will show me the way?

It's always something
when people view you in one way
and you think of yourself in another
where do they get that?
how did they come to that?
I like it better
thank you!

It's always something
when walls come down
and truth comes through
and growth starts again
I love getting older

It's always something
when the sun comes up
the joys it brings
the sorrow it takes
I'm at peace with me
but I am not alone
