9

 

Oh life, you are so cruel and so perverse

That I can’t handle much more of this pain.

The greatest players in the world rehearse

Living through this turmoil completely sane.

Why do you love to put us through these things

That we cannot even dream to endure?

It’s not over ‘til the fat lady sings

But still how can we humans be so sure?

The great part about life is bouncing back

Even if we fall back down as we try.

In life we always try to stay on track

And cherish every moment ‘til we die.

‘Tis only my humble advice to you:

To give your best in all the things you do.
