You must have come all this way for a reason.
I only can guess that you're looking for a ride.
Views may seem nice from the edge of a river,
Yet wouldn't you soon like to see the other side?
Measuring life is like measuring a river:
Not merely how long, but how deep and how wide.

There are many more, many sorts of scales to keep a score.
Your final verdict hinges on a one rarely checked before.

And in the end, you'll know that what everyone needs is something to show,
A net of losses and gains.
Once all else is swept away by those currents rushing below,
You see, at last, what remains.

All is but water, no bridge to go under:
All constant and nothing forgiven on this earth.
Change may be tiresome, though it may be time for some;
Weighed down by change, you don't realize its worth.

You must have come all this way for a reason.
I only can guess that you're looking for a ride.
Views may seem nice from the edge of a river,
Yet wouldn't you soon like to see the other side?
