FEELINGS SO STRANGE

Sitting at a corner, in the compound
At late midnight, stargazing
Arouse a feeling, feeling so strange
But never dismayed, amidst the strong feelings
Arouse a feeling of great fear, fear of detachment
Afraid of being alone, without company or companion
Entertained, without educating, addiction company
Doing what you knows best, Medicine without effect
Without result, beating around the bush


What do you bring to the table of life 
Within your cycle, so you don't recycle
Among those cycle you've outgrown, it's stagnation
Choosing to stand, rather than moving, it stinks
While in the dual lane of life, afraid of speed
Forgetting slow but steady is smooth and smooth fast
Speed kills, when you're out of control, switching
From your space, running your race to another's pace


Life is not a competition, you moves accordingly
Run your race, according to your pace and grace
Not your age, fulfillment matters, age are numbers
A good decision based on knowledge, not numbers
Numbers don't lie. Women and men does, stay Vigilant
I'm writing a book. I've got the page numbers done. 
Heroes get remembered, but legends never die
Life changes on a dime, so live life to the fullest.
