Respectfully

4/10/17

Presently
You all stay in my memories

I wonder if my family and friends will remember me
And if not, then I'll just let it be

Respectfully
To you all I'm sending out positive vibes and energy
For the span of the century
Bless you all and may you remain heavenly

Hold on steadily
Think cleverly
While using every sensory
Especially when in times of jeopardy


After learning from something exemplary
Often I was doing things rudimentary
Yet effectively
Whether or not using some accessory


Due to habits and tendencies
Many times I bought alcohol and things from the dispensary
The cycle was going on endlessly


I've been my own worst enemy
Not always thinking sensibly
But rather recklessly

With  my extemities, strength, determination, wisdom and integrity
Got to work towards serenity
While following my destiny
And occasionally taking time for reverie

Near and far from any effigy
Things happen unexpectedly
Sometimes involving complexity
Yet they just may turn out successfully
And lead to something amazing incredibly
That inspires you tremendously
Or it just may turn out unpleasantly

Objects moving at different trajectories
At speeds of more or less than seventy

	Do not have intentions of treachery
Or jealousy
Over such pitiful and petty reasons essentially

I like learning new recipes
Regardless of if it has celery
Or sesame

Allegedly
Smart decisions and choices just may lead to longevity
