My Manhood

Saying it, it is mouthful
Coming together of things
That were meant to come together
It is a miracle
Is this a destination or a beginning
Both, yes it is
Open your eyes

Happiness starts within
And ends with the one you love
Experience is obtained through struggles
And the formation of strength
Wisdom starts with experience
And the utilisation of knowledge
Self care is developed by respecting yourself
And the acceptance of your flaws
Love starts with feelings
And ends with lots of kisses

Sleeping on it, it is a waste of time
The sequence of events
Lead me to believe
The originality
Is it
Yes, that is right
Your eyes have seen it
