    WINNERS AND LOSERS

    WINNERS AND LOSERS

     

    YOU KNOW WHO THEY ARE

    WHO ARE YOU A WINNER

    THE ONE WE SEE EVERY DAY

    WHO AM I A LOSER

    THE ONE YOU SEE EVERY DAY

     

    WE ALL HAVE MANY THINGS IN COMMEN

    ALTHOUGH

     WE NOT KNOW WHAT THEY MAY BE

    ALL OF US SLEEP WITH OUR OWN NIGHTMARES

    ALL OF US A NATURE OF HABIT

     

    ALTHOUGH

    SOME MAY NOT GIVE THE IMPRESSION OF BEING

    TODAY I LOOK HARD INTO YOUR EYES

    AS I FEEL TEARS RUN DOWN MY FACE

    EXCEPTING THE REALITY

     

    AS I HEAR THOSE VOICES FROM PAST

    PEOPLE I AND OTHERS ONCE KNEW

    I REALIZE

    TODAY IS NOT JUST ANOTHER DAY

    BUT A DAY THAT SHINES OUR SUN

     

    TODAY WILL OPEN THE MANY DOORS

    AS DOORS CLOSE IN THE PAST

    AND YOU ASK YOURSELF

    WHO ARE YOU

    WHO AM I

     

    BECOME ANSWERS BY WHICH WE CAST

    AS TOMORROWS ALWAYS CHANGE

    AS A DAY NOT LIKE OUR LAST

    AND ASK ARE WE WINNERS OR LOSERS

    WE ARE BOTH, AND VAST

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
