A Rattling Rhyme

Don’t you come, don’t ever you come to go away Don’t you go, don’t ever you go to come home back Always walk with your life on your own paved pathway Never try to forsake decisions of the heart you will take. Don’t you speak, don’t ever you speak to say nothing Don’t you say, don’t ever you say words to take back Try not to make the sound if your bell you can’t ring Never eat your spilled words to turn to instant fake. Don’t you look, don’t ever you look out without sight see nothing Don’t you see, don’t ever you see what you have left looking back In the false untrue world you survive letting true vision bring To your mind perception of full life that doesn’t crack. Don’t you dream, don’t ever you dream to sink deep in fantasy Don’t you sink, don’t ever you sink to float on the certainty Let the hopes coming true give you the feeling of ecstasy Never try unframe life making it lose the piece of beauty. Don’t you sleep, don’t ever you sleep to run away from failed life Don’t you run, don’t ever you run to escape the ordained pain Let the mind seek solace in divine soul placid in stiff strife You will find peaceful niche for all the agonies to contain.
