Life Happened

High school reunion the quintessential spot to see who has become and who has not
Many with fatherless babies and overweight wives
Many working in a burger joint or a boring 9-5
A few at the bank sharing bank tellers jokes; a poor synopsis about themselves
A few who showed up but wish they had gone to hell
Then there is that perfect couple that doesn't look perfect anymore
Some more shyly coming through the door
Then conversations begin and catching up occurs
Many are telling lies
Few whispering true words
I thought you were in college?
I thought so too
I dropped out
Well what the hell happened to you?
Life happened
After kid number 1 was kid number 2
I was learning to be a pharmacist but got addicted on some other shhhh
I gave up on sports and i gave up on my health
My wife left me and I've been through hell
The banks won't stop calling and my job cut me loose
Guess what the hell happened
Life happened too
All that money spent for 12 years of school and you mean to tell me you stuck at Atlantis too?
Well i went off to Canada and tried to learn a thing or two
That didn't go well
Life happened too
If i could've seen into the future my preparations would have never failed
But life happened
