Whatever
To the virtue of patience I must say whatever,
for it’s something I have hardly ever.
Each day is filled to the max,
no time to sit around or be lax.
Little chance for a break is nothing new,
since I have so much that I have to do.
I live in the fast lane while I still can,
before I turn into an old man.
There is so much I still want to endeavor,
so those who try and hinder me I say whatever.
I will accomplish my goals no matter what it takes,
or inspite of the sacrifice it makes.
The opportunity will not always be there,
and the sense of accomplishment is beyond compare.
The hard work will pay off one day,
it was well worth the effort I hope to say.
At least I am doing something,
better than sitting around doing nothing.
Although I drive fast and slow down almost never,
to those who can’t understand I say whatever.
