»Lesson of better life«

by Happy Mhlongo

Another day come and other leave.
This count to my life where I lived.
And I've experienced all the life of an entertainer.
The life that I thought will make me stronger
Will make me the incomplete person,
And live a better life tomorrow
When that line moves, I hoped my life will go too.
Just to wake up in a same no talent season.
Asked for all, but no reason why I lived.
Why this life wanna took me young
Can't it see my life just begun?
Let me enjoy for the last time.
Coz the part is there again to hurt me
Bear the future I'm afraid of.
Neither me nor myself I love the most

This my life, and I have to live it
No matter what wrong with it
It's me who can blame me for not being faithful to life

Be who you're and live what you love better
Forget what you need better, time will bring it to you.
I mean be concern about life than luxury things.
The power to live is to let someone praise you for the job you have done.
And let them tell you that you good, although you know that you're not.

The best wish in life is to fear life and...live it to the fullest.
Don't strive to show them that you clever let them guess...
Better be the fool for today and tomorrow you'll be their guest.

Oh but when is tomorrow?
Is it today tomorrow or I'll tell you when is it tomorrow today.
I mean can you wake up in the morning one day and say:
"Oh what a lovely day is it tomorrow when you referring to today"
No darling tomorrow'll never come...ever never ever
What I'm trying to explain here is don't store data and say you'll do it tomorrow.
Rather finish it when you got the time today.
