"Keepsakes"
True friends are like treasured books,
worn from wear, but always there in their nook.
Some pages are earmarked, some words
underlined,
like your shared history you can always find.
Books have a shelf life, people say—
Only a few you love enough
to never give away.
“Finishing
The Race”
If life were compared to a race course, it wouldn't be a
straight one.
You
could pass mile marker one and two,
and
realize you missed seeing some things along the way
and
go back to redo them.
Or
you could accidently veer off course—
And
it might take you awhile to notice,
so
you'd have to spend more energy to get back on track
Or
you could get tired and decide to take a break on the sidelines...
Whatever
the case, it wouldn't be a straight shot—
For
there's no set time for the race
and
when it comes to reaching the finish line,
you
just get there when you get there.
