“No in betweens please” -
2nd Nov’2001
Life is like a game of cards.
You place the right ones next to the other.
All the problems would seemingly disappear.
Yet one wrong move can wreck
And there goes the lot tumbling the whole
deck !!
You can make mistakes and yet win.
But in real life there is nothing in
between.
Either you can be scared or venture your
first step.
Either you can love or you can hate.
Either you can live or you can die.
Either it is a yes or it is a no.
Either there is today or there is tomorrow.
Either you can trust or you can betray.
Either you can laugh or you can cry.
Either you are sad or you are happy.
Either
you can live it up or always compromise.
Life is for real – either it is do or it is
die.
In Life,
there are No in betweens, please.
Either you can be scared or you can venture
your first step.
Either you can forgive and forget or you
can prolong your misery.
Either you can stay put or give up.
Either you can scratch and fight or be
everyone’s merry delight.
The choice is yours to make.
You either choose and live up to it or
remain dangling no where.
Because Life is for real.
Either it’s a do or not to do.
For there are no in - betweens please !!!
