Life Poem by Peri Morgan

There seems to be a high price for wisdom;
retaining lessons from mistakes long forgotten.
The more you know, the more you've seen;
the more you learn, the harder life's been.
You hear people say 'life's not fair';
these are the people who do not care,
where they have been nor where they are going;
getting older but never growing.
No matter who you are or what you've seen,
just remember we make our own reality.
