QUESTION

To the one who has written this song called life
come on down and be human for a day
being God must be easy
try wearing our hats for a few days.
With each day is a new
struggle
many roles you would need to juggle
you can’t give up on any
this won’t simple with the kind of roles we shuttle
Earning a living or living
the earned
mastering this life or letting it master
the art of wearing masks so many
with an angel an evil riding your shoulder each day
who do you listen to?
Making decisions – serving
consequences
enduring the pains of failures, heartbreaks, losses
illness, fears and oh those internal fights
who would you let win? The heart or the mind?
Gloomy when pockets are
lighter but still willing to fly
brace yourself dear god , there is still more to come by
this body you gave us, was it to endure such pains ?
it acts like a magnet to ailments , new cancer , and diseases in vain.
Who wants to take the bed
when life is so short
and biggest dilemma of us being
we still don’t know why here we got!
for me, we humans are the mini gods
in our own little ways
mightier than you thought!
To the one who has written
this song called life
come on down and be human for a day
being god must be easy
try wearing our hats for a few days..
