I Sometimes Roar When I Should Whisper

I sometimes roar when I should whisper
I apologise
Flawed with no cure I still deliver
Dont be surprised

Im often patient when others hasten
Tortoise and hare
Most friends are absent when time to listen
God is there

I open doors that should stay closed
Bein curious
Seen seashores without my clothes 
risky business

I'll never be finished makin mistakes
learning experiences
Where others have perished I shall stay awake
Mental perserverance
