Choose not to stumble
There are words spoken , to be commenced
It is never good in situations to be silenced
A wrongful demand from another steals rest
Yet other times in life, silence is best
Words of truth are to be forever honored
Even coming from any path that is wandered
This is when the choice made is pertinent
knowing there are people who won't repent
These choices can change a moment or life
They can calm chaos or ignite strife
In time with practice, it is learned
How to bring good things or to be burned
When the sun shines or the thunder rumbles,
Remember this choice to prevent stumbles
