one life isnt enough...

One life isn’t enough.........

Up there I view myself roaming about clouds,

Betting on self for racing with birds.

All the mighty and small,

I see as equal, as pictures roll.

One life isn’t enough, dear...

There’s so much to do before the world see my rear!

Down there I view myself dipping deep and deep,

I touch; I feel those slimy cute fish,

Red and blue and green,

Making rainbows with each bubble they throw.

One life isn’t enough, dear...

There’s so much to do before the world see my rear!

Walking through knee length grasses,

Breeze whispers into my ears, their dreams.

I close my eyes gently,

And feel the voice of silence.

One life isn’t enough, dear...

There’s so much to do before the world see my rear!

I see my parents walk through the street,

Head held high, no lines on forehead.

Tears of happiness rolling down their cheeks,

Of living their life and got salvation in me.

One life isn’t enough, dear...

There’s so much to do before the world see my rear!

Fingers intermingled, pace too slow to reach,

Moonlight sparkling the waves as they kiss our feet.

I met myself inside out,

Wishing each moment to stand still.

One life isn’t enough, dear...

There’s so much to do before the world see my rear!

I hear children cry, mothers scream,

“Raise us up; give us a hug of love,”

All they need is a tiny portion of my life,

But here I am to give you my whole.

One life isn’t enough, dear...

There’s so much to do before the world see my rear!
