Collice Rodrigues Poet Light Verse

Open Up By Collice Rodrigues

Open up your arms and try to fly

Cuz we all can stretch but not touch the sky

 

Open up your ears and try to understand

Cuz we all can listen but not feel the same

 

Hold your breath and try to swim

Cuz we all can breathe but not feel its beat

 

Close your eyes and try to listen

Cuz we all can see but it needs efforts to hear

 

Open up your mind and try to accept

Cuz we all can agree but not bend with guilt

 

Open up your hearts and try to forgive

Cuz we all can love but not love an enemy

 

Open up your soul and try to end its solidarity

Cuz we all can befriend a 100 but not one befriends your soul

 

Open up yourself and try to live

Cuz we all have the means to survive but not any to feel alive
