Pain Wrote a Note I Had To Quote
I am the custodian of your
golden grain,
without me everyone's life
will be in vain.
You have me in full me
during child labour,
but alas, you take delivery
of a favour!
I come for a season and I
have a reason,
wisdom makes you learn
from me a lesson.
You can't escape me when
I come closer...
But it is your choice to be a
learner or a loser.
The feeble minded hold
unto me and frown,
the strong let go the cross
and get the crown.
You can contact me from
friends and foes
I stay longer if you pay
focus on life's woes.
Do not make out with me
or I will marry you,
I am just a passer-by... with
a timely glue.
You can't hide but you can
run for your life,
it's your choice to stay in
sorrows and strife.
I am that crazy guest that
likes to stay longer,
...that lousy pest, always
growing stronger
sell yourself to me, I will
make you cheaper,
do not swim in me, or you
will go...deeper.
