POETRY RUNS THE UNIVERSE

UNSPOKEN

The streets know him by name,he is a star with no fame
they always judge him and so he pleaded guilty they now call him the beggar
i swear i saw him today and i offered to help
instead he asked for a pen and this is his message for you

in every seed, there is a tree
in every sheep, there is a flock
in every cow, there is a herd
in every boy, there is a man
in every girl, there is a woman
and in every nation a generation
               
                 BUT
Tragedy strikes when a man dies in a boy
a woman in a girl and a generation in a nation

failure is the key to success
 and if they change the padlock
just break in tell them we were born to win
if they cut off lights in your life
jump in jubilation and remind them stars only shine in darkness

for once be selfish never to give up
let them call you a miser but retain your hope
they may cut both your legs but
in hope like a grasshopper you can hop

they made to the finishing line before remind them you drew it
never made it in the marathon remind them you top the human race
tell them to give you space coz they cant keep your pace
 and if they claim to be heroes remind them you are the hero to their heroes
