I lay here not knowing
What to do or where to go
It seems like time's just passing
Twiddling idly like soft snow.
I care not for the things I used to love
I care not for eating or drink
I feel tired and weak, and sick I may say
As I gleam at the ceiling to think.
Why aren't I in the best of moods?
Why do I feel so sad?
Few things have changed, if I can recall
As time passes, ironclad.
I believe I may have just answered myself
To the question I've wanted to know
Things aren't changing; I've come to a stop
When the answer is simply to go.
Time will pass and pass me by
If I don't keep doing my best
Striving, thinking, learning, yearning
And having God take care of the rest.
You're gonna go through hard times in life
That's a fact as certain as time
It's a test; this life, that's why we get sad
But there's reason to every man's rhyme.
Make your reason a one that will get you an 'A'
In this test that some say is life
This low point will pass; its time will not last
Work hard and you'll soar like a kite.
As time will still pass, you'll feel peace at last
As you have placed knowledge between
Don't just sit there and live; get up, learn and give
Try to make it worth it; this deen.
