A Straight Talk
Grab the heart from the chest
Haste while the world is at rest
There is no tomorrow
Neither there was any past
It’s a precious gift
Present welcomes you with all its powers
Sketching the curves of tomorrow
Planning the ups and downs of future still bounded to past
But don’t lose hope, keep on the faith
Break out of these shackles of times
Grow old and grow strong on your terms
Be the seeker that never quits
Get out of this worldly chaos
Stay away from the hypocrites
Live life like you never did start.
