A Beautiful Creation
Life can be such a fragile thing.
There is nothing that is for sure
When you think its figured out
Circumstance has no certain cure
It changes in a matter of seconds
Sometimes change is in the cards
As life teeter-totters up and down
Being the fulcrum can be very hard
As we plan ahead we look behind
Using our memories from the past
Just as every dream has a scheme
Every single play must have a cast
As you choose your teams players
Learn to choose them very wise
Many people you cross in this life
Are illusions based solely on lies?
I was once that type of person
Wizard came before my name
My universe was in my flask
I was a master of the game
Honesty has no boundaries
It is never best for us to lie
If we do these words are true
Something up inside of us dies
Life and death is but a breath
Only a second rest in-between
Through honesty I have found
Lies destroy any type of dream
So as you build up your life
Let truth be your foundation
In the end, you my dear friend
Will be such a beautiful creation
