Jacqui Broad - Life

Life is a bitter cherry,
brings you down while being merry.
You may sit and enjoy a cup of tea,
when you get hit with such misery.
You may sit and eat a sandwich of cucumber,
when you get thrown with sudden wonder.
You may sit and smoke a joint,
when you realise life has no point.
You may sit and drink a whiskey,
when you realise life's become too risky.
You may talk with a friend on the phone,
when you realise you feel all alone.
Life has become so bitter-sweet,
since I have no friends to greet...
