The Slope of life

Though, rough, and reserved

 Even I can be energetic

 if broken into like the lube on rusty gears 

I came from somewhere not so near 

From the city of Suzhou to the Town of Dover

It seems I traveled the world end to end 

Embrace and bestow what privilege life beholds 

But I am still young 

Hope it still shows 

Still much to learn 

And far lands to go


How straightforward I can be

I guess we’ll never know

Too ambitious for my own good

But I like it just so

Tech is like a puzzle

You have hundreds of ways to go

But in the end, it's always the same

Fun or lame?


I love when it snows

Cause it's time to ski

All those twists and turns

Never get old

Like life if it was gold

Because life is never perfect

Only highs and lows 

Just like the slopes
