Let It Be

This poem is a message from a father to his dear child...

Sleeping peacefully, my dear baby, so lovely and mild

Three words I would like you to know, my child

"Let it be"

Sometimes you will give your best

Yet you might be nowhere close to the rest

Just let it be

Sometimes your heart might be broken

With only memories left as a token

Just let it be

Sometimes you have to forget your long wait

And walk away with a losing, disappointed gait

Just let it be

Sometimes all your efforts might go in vain

You might be left with just regrets and pain

Just let it be

Sometimes life may get rough and harsh

But never allow your mind to be marsh

Just let it be 

Sometimes close to victory, you might face defeat

But do not let your confidence go offbeat

Just let it be

Sometimes when you are very lost and confused 

Know that, within you, I am always fused 

So just let it be
