A Diamond In the Rough

The sun was hot but it was cold
He was old but I was not
I could walk but he could not
Although he was frinedly I was not
He spoke to me but I did not 
I thought he was beneath me but he taught me alot
Although he was old he had wisdom 
The kind that came from a kingdom
Grace, and peace of a lord if only I had listened 
he spoke to me with a commanding voice 
he told me I have a choice 
which path will I chose 
The path of peace and enteral light with dimonds to light
Or the path to damnation and enteral darkeness full of wrath in 
the path
