An Aye For a Nay

Sometimes its an aye, aye, aye Instead of saying nay, nay, nay; Patience is a virtue So hold it, can you? If you can then go, go, go! Life goes on the way we like it to. They said, 'wait till you become so be it; And when it's you who'll reach the climb give't a break: For what's worst than being pricked with broken shards, Is to teach the child to read "radar" or "kayak" backwards. Life is not about the sex, the gap, the age Neither about the work, the duration, the stage Nor about the color, the culture, the race and language For if we talk about each other's differences We're not far from comparing a rooster to a hen When the only fact is they're both chickens. Life isn't about who's craddled last or first— There's but only one solution to your hunger So as to queench your thirst. Now see, where did we differ? In stands? In ideologies? Or once career? No! It's just pride and prejudice, brother and sister. Life goes on the way we want it to If you can't, for the first time, don't push it through Slowly, set it free; don't be jealous And when you're already ready; don't get nervous Give it another try And that's the time you'll surely say— Aye! #NEVERgiveUP #KeepFighting #LPT
