Some Of Us

Some of us are fragile
Some of us have snapped
Some of us are watching
Some of us are trapped
Some of us are wounded
Some of us have strayed
Some of us are striving
Some have not been paid

Some of us count blessings
Some of us want more
Some of us are zealous
Some of us not sure
Some of us are crumpled
Some of us are groomed
Some of us are modest
Some of us consumed

It's a journey, it's a ramble
It's a gamble, it's a phase
A corridor, a segment,
A few hours and several days
It's a legacy of poverty
A mishap and a treat
A walk of benediction...
And stumbling defeat

Some of us a bluffing
Some of us are trained
Some of us are fruitful
Some of us have waned
Some of us are yawning
Some of us are harmed
Some of us are outcasts
Some of us are alarmed

It's a journey, it's a ramble
It's a gamble, it's a phase
A corridor, a segment,
A few hours and several days
It's a legacy of poverty
A mishap and a treat
A walk of benediction...
And stumbling defeat


Some of us know history
Some of us know none
Some of us are present
Some of us have gone
Some of us are restless
We wait in this place
Between the vale of circumstance
Waiting for Grace.
