In This Life

In this life, I’ve seen that we are pretty much the same We have the same opportunities and we all have the ability to choose Here in Zimbabwe, there are many who share my name But in a race, we differ because one of us will win and the others lose In this life, I’ve seen that we all have the same time, 24 hours each day It is enough for everyone to do their duties and focus on what’s prime But I don’t know why when we have the same allocation, we almost always delay And there we differ, because some are punctual but others procrastinate all the time In this life, I’ve seen that parents have no time for their kids Always on their phones typing, at work or watching television Of course, we focus less on their wants, and more on their needs But they need their parents just to talk, play and do homework or revision In this life, I’ve seen that we all need love The love of parents, of friends, of spouses and the love of God But we laugh at street kids, we leave them to starve We don’t want to unite with others, all we want is discord #LetsAllChangeForTheBetter
