It’s okay to be sad every once in a while
It’s fine to reflect on the past and smile
Yes one must move ahead with every passing mile
Yet you don’t have to rush through life as if it is going out of style
It’s okay to feel lonely every now and then
It’s not such a tragedy to feel lost and looking for Zen
Yes one must stay connected with the rest of human race
Yet you are permitted some solitary me time in your happy place
It’s okay to be bored and confused sometimes
It’s not always that you can make lemonade from the limes
Yes one must have purpose and ambition in life
Yet remember life is a rollercoaster where ups and downs are rife
Its okay to be lagging behind when competition is strong
Its fine to pace your own race there is nothing wrong
Yes one must lookout for winning and accomplishment
Yet each one is fighting his own battle with some breath on rent
It’s okay to be pessimistic occasionally
It’s not as if every occasion in life is a festivity
Yes one must not let it affect your ability and attitude
Yet we must experience sadness in order to learn gratitude
It’s okay to make mistakes as long as you don’t repeat
It’s a road to success bumps and speed breakers replete
Yes one must know where we went wrong and correct it
Yet victories require patience you reach your goal bit by bit
Its okay to cry sometimes and let the tears flow
It’s part of a process that helps you grow
Yes one must develop resilience to realize your passion
Yet eyes that cry speak of a heart full of compassion
So beautifully written, you have a lovely pen.
Thanks so much
