Eraser
Since young we’ve found
that scribbles and mistakes
can be erase to none.
An eraser is all it takes.
It erases the thoughts unwanted
It scribes off the song unsung
It cleans the mess we’ve done
Undo everything, eraser’s the one!
How I wish that life
also comes with an eraser
to undo the things we’ve done
so that life’s simple and fun.
Everything will be so perfect
with no mistakes to be made.
Find a part of you that is sad
rub it off and you’ll be glad!
Sadly in life,
there’s no eraser around
to wipe away our tears
to swipe away our fears.
We have to understand
mistakes give us a chance
to fall down and strike again
and learn to be a stronger man
Through it we gain courage,
wisdom, strength and zeal
so we don deal problems with rage
and don’t fake what we feel.
