THE BOOK OF LIFE<br />

Samantha Barrera<br />

There comes a time within one’s life, when you start to reminisce.<br />

Was every hope that came before this moment all for this?<br />

At what point do we reach the chapter when we finally come of age,<br />

where life, it finally all makes sense; where can we find that page?<br />

We spend our childhood years, dreaming of the very day,<br />

that we step into our adult self; oh, how we wish our youth away.<br />

Yet when we peel away the layers of growth and wisdom gained,<br />

it seems within every one of us, our core remains the same.<br />

There long yearns an inner child seeking happiness and love.<br />

Now tell me, in which chapter of life can I find such things thereof?<br />

Although it’s hard to stop and pause in the continuity of life’s book,<br />

I encourage you to find the time to take another look.<br />
