its just a handful of memories
From misdemeanours to felonies
Funerals of family
Look at my life

Guess i took a different route
Take a look at my life”

And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,

And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
