Opposites Retract

The difference between bravery and stupidity is a wide chasm One is true as all can see, yet the other is more like a spasm One is felt from within the heart and is supported by the mind The other comes from a different part and is followed by the blind Bravery brings about one's tears just in the knowing of the act So often met with loud cheers in the seeing of what we lacked But stupidity has no cause and thus has no real meaning at all As we all shouldn't take any pause in watching their great fall Sometimes no matter how hard you try or write down to read You can only sit there and sigh as they missed your best lead But you must let stupid go in doing all that you can possibly do It's the Holy Spirit that you know so thank God that it's not you So many before thought they were brave only to find it not so Now lying dead in their grave realizing they didn't really know Yet all those brave shall rise just in the knowing of God's Glory Trust me, it's not a surprise that you don't agree with His Story ...as darkness must retract from the Light.
