Sometimes

Sometimes life has a way to teach one even one lesson
Sometimes it may be that it takes a lifetime before realisation

Sometimes it seems that everyone saps the life out of you
Sometimes with failure after failure you know not what to do

Sometimes you think that your contribution maybe helpful
Sometimes everyone expects you only to be dutiful

Sometimes you show your frustration at mere rejection
Sometimes you regret your action upon reflection

Sometimes you struggle to figure what role to play
Sometimes you may want to but then it's better nothing you say

Sometimes you think people's acceptance of you is respect
Sometimes you wonder if the opposite means to reject

Sometimes you sit and wonder at the confusion of it all
Sometimes you consider why your eyes out you do bawl

Sometimes it is merely that you don't know the “when”
Sometimes one must say this feeling of rejection never again

Sometimes we must be patient for we know not the reason
Sometimes it is that we were placed here for others’ repletion

Sometimes it is best that we quietly carry on with life
Sometimes one just has to do a little more to avoid strife

Sometimes with these many tests we are bombarded
Sometimes we learn and with time we are no longer red-carded

Sometimes we must take time to learn our role in life
Sometimes it's in silence we do look forward to the afterlife

Sometimes our test in life is more about our patience
Sometimes  it's sobering to know you will not meet other's expectations

Sometimes it's necessary to continue the best that you can be
Sometimes being agreeable to others will set you free
