Life is a wobbly ladder, or a series of them.
And you don't realize until it's too late.
You need someone to steady it, and hold up your weight.
But how do you trust that person to decide your fate?
Sometimes when you're nearing the destination,
the wood gives out and you start to fall,
Back to the beginning, having to restart it all.
Life is a ladder, or multiple ladders,
that we all have the opportunity to climb,
But you must watch out for the dehydrated, old, and crackly kind.
