Time is of the essence if this test is a lesson
then patience must be a virtue if I'm to get the blessing
without the stressing,
but rewarded for the message!
so my life is lived
with a part to keep & a part to give
but only if things remain still
I will see it all
before the curtain falls
and if the hurting is the lesson
I gotta get up again and re-study it all
