Poem
Down through the ages, the centuries that have gone by There are those that society, that will place above the rest To a higher ground, so small impossible to stand Thinking that are perfect, millions will testify The perfect one has passed every test Loved, worshiped and hailed across the land Riches, fame and glory, are in their reach The finest food, castles made of gold People from all over the world will listen to what they have to teach Until the time, when the true side of the story will un fold And it will be another story Until that fatal day, when the pedestal come crumbling down They take the largest fall of all, to the very bottom Walking a tight rope with out a security net, they stumble In everyone's eyes they are a fool, no longer a king with a crown Poor choices with lack of judgment, actions without wisdom Their only refuge, is to become humble The world, hurts because they have been deceived One day he was their hero, now a zero all alone Be not quick to judge, he is only human like us all Maybe we were wrong, the fools who believed When the hungry wolves go for the heart and cut to the bone Let only God judge and be placed on that pedestal
