Sometimes I suppose..
I am supposed to be cautious supposed to be caring
But more often I am just reckless and daring
I not supposed to play games am supposed to be true
But I sometimes forget the rules and sometimes don’t have a clue
Sometimes I promise to behave to learn and grow
Alas more often it’s just chaos that I sow
Sometimes I put a tiger into a cage
Then torment him into a terrible rage
I am supposed to leave old habits and learn
That sometimes fire can make you burn
You are supposed to follow the warnings I heed
Sometimes it’s best stay away not to follow my lead
You sometimes think you are in control
I suppose you think one day you’ll have my whole
I suppose one day the tables will turn
And sometime someday I will be the one with the lesson to learn

I think in one way or another we can all relate to this. Nice honest ink.

This belongs in a fairytale book for adults, I don't know something like that lol. Great ending.
