If you stand and look life
In the eye it will tell you that
Everything that glitters is not
Gold,
And it will also tell you
That what looks and feels right could
Also be painful to hold.
You never notice how
Fragile something is until
You give it away,
And when it is
Fixed and unbroken nothing ever
Really seems to be OK.
We hurt with tears
And the tears we often cry
Are of pain and defeat.
The pain of something
Loved and the defeat of an
Enemy.
There’s always a light
In the darkness of pain
That we never seem to find,
With the wrongs of ones
Doings and the thought of another’s
Is evil and evil combined.
We harden our hearts with
The worries of others, and are
Not careful
With each step we take.
Because what
We don’t realize is
That one step further
Leaves us one more choice to
Make.
