Lessons taught and yet to teach Unfurl themselves from your unknown depths Power and promise, false for each To prove corruption with every breath Alone, the world is blind A push to prove our selfish ways A push to see the truth The people try to avert their gaze Misfortune exists to improve A lesson staked with life Be appreciative...It could be worse A new phrase engraved in my mind My family, my friends, in love I’m immersed My perspective was altered, by design How strange a new normal My want for change ever increases Never more have my close ones been so appreciated Taken for granted, my old normal left And from my hopes, my life deviated For good or not, that’s yet to be seen
