[bodytext] => The bells are ringing children are playing Passing exams and no one failing The pressure is on the teachers not the students When they fail me they are failing themselves Their jobs are on the line so they worry more about their health Maids and nurses are feeling sad Loved ones are dying all over this place Jack and Jill never went up the hill They fetched me a new car That's how it is, old men are sleeping on the streets Wondering how it all fell apart Their future was gloom from the very start Drugs are upun us and there's nothing we can do We're just praying that our chrildren are not taking them Really it is a waiting game making sure they are safe for 16 years When that period is done they are free to do whatever they like But with the Lord among us all, let us hope for the path which is right Now we are in university planning to get married But is there enough money to raise a family? Wrong decisions lead to the wrong company Hopefully we can get along in harmony Now we are 60, home, wife and kids But unfortunately for some people there on the streets You think it is cool and your ego is getting bigger But in a blink of an eye "BANG" things go sour [comments] => 2 [counter] => 187 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Marko [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
