33 and counting

33 years old, wow where did the years go?

Time flies by so fast, you, cant take things slow

And despite it all, I just can’t help wondering

Could my life really get anymore interesting?

My memory is both blessing as well as a curse

At times it makes me feel that much worse

33 years of insanity pretty much from day one

And lord knows, they haven’t always been fun

I’ll always be grateful for all my experiences

For my family, friends and my acquaintances

I’m grateful too, for my enemies and foes

Especially the ones responsible for my woes

The choices I made weren’t always the best

I know someday all my regrets will be at rest

And for those who supported me through it all

I am who I am because you didn’t let me fall 

I’ve been privileged to know love in all its glory

Despite the sad ends, they were amazing stories

I’ve enjoyed life’s pleasures and I’ve felt its pain

I’ve been through enough to drive a man insane

I may not have achieved everything I wanted

And I’ve taken many of life’s lessons for granted

Where to from here? I’ll have to wait and see

Cos I’ve lived a lifetime already, and I’m only 33
