The path of life, a winding road,
With twists and turns, a heavy load.
Each step we take, a lesson learned,
With every fall, a corner turned.

In youth, we dream with hearts so light,
Unburdened by the weight of night.
But as we grow, we start to see,
The shadows cast by destiny.

With time, our eyes begin to clear,
We face our doubts, embrace our fear.
For in the mirror, truth revealed,
A soul that’s scarred, yet fully healed.

So let us cherish every scar,
They show us who we truly are.
In every heartache, strength is found,
A testament to growth unbound.
