Briana Johnson
Life's pen
Papers's tatoo can never be erased
What you've said can always be traced
Reminding us to be careful with words
Like a delinquent's school records
Ink will stop flowing now and then
Remember mistakes are very human
But don't allow this to delay
Take the right path and never stray
Grip as though each letters your last
Reminis on good or bad past
Make the best of all mistakes
Learn from everything life makes
When the pen begins to dry
Praise what you've become
Conclude with your last good-bye
And then your life is done
