Winner and Losers In Life
In regards to this game or so called thing we call life
Technically I haven't lost as yet
But on the other hand I certainly as hell haven't won
And although I am over 50 now its not full time just as yet either
As we are now just merely moving into overtime
Because if anything life thus far has taught me this
It can not end neither in a tie nor a draw
We all simply have to keep playing until the final whistle blows
And there must eventually either be a loser or said winner
Otherwise we will be stuck
somewhere in between like purgatory
Waiting for the final verdict and eventual outcome to be heard
Of whether or not we are
destined to rise up or headed for a fall
And only those lucky enough victorious winners in the end reap the glory
Whereas the losers unfortunately are only left with sadness and regret
One can only guess and I don't suppose
in the end
The meek don't inherit the earth either
