Who says the child won’t grow
Who says he’ll never become a man
Who says he’ll forever remain a toddler
Not knowing his left from his right
Who says this is all there is to him
Who says his best days are now
Who says he is not more than meets the
eye
That the prevailing is his last
Who says he won’t learn
Who says his ignorance would survive
Who says he’ll always be daft
Living in ways eccentric
Who says he’s an aberration
Who says he’ll never rhyme with time
Who says his life his done
Never seeing the light of day
Who says the boy won’t find love
Who says he’ll never get a crush
Who says he’ll always be a loner
Who says his name won’t appear on the
list of the great
Who says he’ll always be a mediocre
Never succeeding in finding his identity
Living as a slave to his fellow men
Would you judge him by his ‘now?
Or would you give him a chance to grow?
Would you criticize his ‘today’
Or Help his tomorrow find expression
Even the best of men have been boys once
They have had their own share of mistakes
and failure
But had been given only the chance to be
their best
If only we will let him grow
At his pace maybe,
Maybe he will find his true self
Unleash his strengths
And release the gift he is for the world
to see
If everybody goes through the same phase
you are now, why give up on yourself. Why think no good can come out of you.
Those who said nothing good could come out of Nazareth had their words to
swallow. Why let failure stop. Those who try to discourage you are only afraid
of what you can do if only you’ll get it right. Those who say you can’t succeed
are only judging from their own failures. Failure is the best soil that grows success.
Would you quit being a guest at your own
pity party and pick up your life for the better?
There is more to you…am watching out for
you!
