Wise Words

cross roads are there for you to take, which one you going to chose.
one is a flowery field,
one is a dry desert,
you willing to go the easy way, 
or will you go the hard way, 
The easy way is fully written, 
your life has already been planned out, 
you face nothing but happiness, 
The hard way is unwritten, 
you choose what it will hold, 
you can live each day has it comes, 
or live each day like it's your last, 
the choice is yours, so think about it, 
YOU willing to have someone to tell you how to live your life, 
because you only got one, 
so make it right, 
even if you have to fight, 
to figure it out, 
the best possible place to start,
 is look and see what's in your heart, 
if your stomach is strong enough, 
face the desert and survive, life is full of ups and downs, 
but if you have the strength, never lose your will, 
never give up hope, 
because hope will find you, 
be it in the sky or the rivers flowing by, 
you will find your faith, 
when you begin to feel the weight of the world on your shoulders, 
shake it off, 
because you should not carry the burden of your pass, 
because that's it, 
it's your pass, 
don't bring it to your future, 
your future holds new hopes,
New dreams, 
New happiness,
New love, 
New Faith, 
New family, 
your new forever, 
happiness will not find you, 
you need to get off your butt, 
kick who ever brings you down that's it kick them to the ground, 
stand tall never hind away, 
be the person you are today, 
she/he is beautiful inside and out,
you just don't know it, 
until you see it,    

so those are my wise words to you, 
I never knew it, 
until I saw it deep inside my soul,
I let go of those who held me down,
I did kick them to the ground.

I hope this brings some kind of knowledge,
for some of you.
