Slow Down Poem by Lewis DaLyricist

Slow down

Before I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I do believe that, My words will
change someone's life.

There comes a stage where
our clocks go down and down
and down,
As the cycle of life
is going round and round
and round,
Not realising that
this might be our last walk
and our last talk.

Waiting for the night
to come is torturous
Not knowing
what tomorrow might bring.

But now, Slow down.
I give you a chance to
think about it,
Wherever you are,
Wherever you're going,
slow down,
You've been running so fast
but now slow down.

What profit is there in
your death
if you go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise
the Most High?
Who will be merciful
to your grave? .

I know We all wanna end this world with a smile on our face.
The only thing we want are goals, happiness and,
Living a luxury life style
But does materials equal success? .
Does he find happiness
on that Rolex he bought? ,
Yeah he does,
Hahaha...that's an irony.
It's as if its useless for someone
to love objects,
that can't love them back.

If you don't get me,
Take a look at the way
money
divides people's life as
whether poor
or rich.
Of which isn't fair.

It takes a fool to love an object
that cannot love them back,
Growing up I was told
"Money can't buy happiness"
that's the famous quote
that one of us know.

I guess we have an excuse to live day by day with no purpose
But surely
In this journey called life,
there is no return ticket.

Shouldn't we become more than a dash between two dates on a gravestone in a cemetery?

Do you shake the owner of the restaurants hand with the same hand you shake the hand
of the man that's digging toilets?
Or do you look down on those below you because they got less?

There comes a stage where you have to choose your exit
and find your way to heaven,
You see we're attracted to the wrong things and we cry about the trouble it brings,
Have you noticed that
the more people you make happy the happier you will be.

I do, Salute the mind
of that kind
man who invented aeroplane.
But the reality
is that As you step in that plane
you are risking
With your life,
For it takes a brave men
to believe in survival.

When the future holds little promise of success.
Try to make it through
just one day
without feeling like tomorrow
is the same day as today and will be same as the following day.

Remember you only
live once.
