You cannot argue with a blind man
on what he doesn't see
Or a lame man
on what he cannot run to
Or the deaf
on what you've heard
You cannot argue with a mute
they have no words to give
You cannot force a hateful spirit
to love
or the judgemental
to have compassion
Or the learned
to go back to the basics
something or someone has gotta give
and that's you
You have to give up
or you have to decide to keep
giving anyway
until you lose the argument of your life
because, afterall, you cannot argue with death
it cannot know or understand or feel or touch or see
life and it does not discriminate
of that much... we all have death in common.
