A fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;
Directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test and don't ask why.

But in the end it's right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

So make the best of this task and don't ask why.
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.

I hope you had the time of your life.
