Turning of the Wheel

The wheel of life continues to turn,

recalling all the lessons learned.

The echoes of what once were going to be,

are snuffed like a candle and fade from memory.

The smiles and laughter now replaced with silence,

a void in their place from that day hence.

Struggle against this with all your might,

change is inevitable and you will lose the fight.

Embrace each day just as the last,

you will not relive mistakes from the past.

Your spirit is stronger that you will ever know,

take the reins and continue to grow.
