No Excuses

No Excuses In the midst of the present, No excuses. Fell down, got up Then flight But the bruises ache As I turn the pages To move on, discern As one of lifes excuses. Practice, appease, try to please Yet I failed, Time and time again Possibilities pass me by And I thought Picked a wrong card. I cheated, lost But I could find One of lifes excuses. Felt love, lost love Heaven above. The thrust, the lust All embracing Till I got the rush Feeling the force of the crush Caught a diamond But a busted flush To my disappointment I had to run In the arms Of lifes excuses. Profession of music, geometry Physics and Biology Bisect,disect, Fusion of intellect Expanding virtues of trials and failures But there is the revision, The safety Of lifes excuses
