Rule No Rule


Has there got to be a right and a wrong
One good for all; the one proper path
Why can’t you just live by, they way you dream,
And I be free to live my route, my side…

Why do you find it all conditional, when there is
No live link to catch up by, to find
A reason complete, to compare lives
Those lives so separate, diverse and beautiful…

Your rules don’t apply to my day, yet you want
To impel and to guide me through
Procedures vague and incomplete for my senses,
By foist and by force; ‘cause you want it that way…

I am not yet weak and limp, neither am I
Shaky and confused and lost,
All I am is frustrated, ‘Cause it is
Not yet enough time till I want to choose…

Maybe I ll never choose; I don’t have to only because
It qualifies as good for one; there ain’t any good, no bad
There is my life; not a mere implication
Of an example, of what to be and the way, how!

Well, it wasn't really as simple as live and let live... I insist that one life, can not imply another life. Influence, is again another concept. You wouldn't get influenced unless, you let yourself be. You can hear from a thousand mouths, but you tend to choose; hence be influenced.

I only tried to portray my reluctance towards even listening to someone's so-called-cool-ideas.

That is what my emotions are like, sometimes. When I manage to fight them, I am quite a good listener. As a result of everything, I become highly prone to change. Though, i can never assure it would be for good. ;-)

Cheers!

No one can really fathom the heights of english language, and one of those words I simply ADORE, is a part of your vocabulary.

Foist.

"Procedures vague and incomplete for my senses,
By foist and by force; ‘cause you want it that way…"
