Yous From the Mes
You can't have a storm without the
rain,
You won't experience love without
the pain.
You'll never run if you weren't taught
to walk,
You will never listen if you don't learn
how to talk.
Through the eyes of yourself life's
lessons you'll learn,
If you soak up the knowledge you'll
know which way to turn.
If you take a wrong turn you can
choose to turn back,
If you keep on going your
responsible for the slack.
The instruction book for life is
written by you,
When you take direction and do what
you do.
Noone can tell you how to travel your
road,
But you can learn from their
wisdoms to lighten the load.
your mistakes will be published in
the troubleshooting page,
You can refer back to them for the
rest of your days.
If you choose to ignore them and
pretend they're not written,
Then expect to go backwards once
again and be bitten.
If your smart you will learn from
another ones sorrows,
Not mimicking their moves will
benefit your tomorrows.
Take a leaf from their book but dont
take the whole tree,
Because the branches separate the
you's from the me's.
