Poetic-Verses

'' For You They'll Shed Genuine Tears ''

Let the journey begin,
Will you lose or win,
Be a leader or will you be led,
The answers my friend lie deep within,
Heed them or you could end up dead.

There'll be choices to make,
Some you'll need to forsake,
But will that decision be yours,
In life be prepared to give and take,
Wisdom my friend reassures.

Take all you learn,
For what will you yearn,
Vast sums or a good reputation,
Be careful what you choose to earn,
Some things do bring consternation.

Will you help the needy?
Or rather be greedy,
What will be your ultimate reward?
Being known as kind or terribly seedy,
What type fits with your accord?

Influence from some,
Will inevitably come,
But ultimately it's what you choose to do,
Don't make excuses for acting dumb,
The answers lie squarely with you.

To try and pass blame,
Will only bring shame,
Contrition always cleanses the soul,
When telling lies it's yourself you defame,
Truth makes you once again whole.

The journey will end,
Your past you can't mend,
What you've done never truly disappears,
If your legacy others forever defend,
