Too many want want want
So they will take take take!
For your own well-being
Get away from them
Fall for someone that want to see you rise
Fall for someone who want more for you
Not more from you
Let the cure of simplicity be
A reminder that love can exist in the right amount!
Loving in the wrong direction can be an obstacle
Caught up in passion can become didactical
A lesson for some
Because loving in the wrong direction can become a burden!
Fall for someone that want to see you rise
Fall for someone who want more for you
Not more from you
Let the cure of simplicity be
A reminder that love can exist in the right amount!

These days it's clearly the fashion
To tell college grads: "Follow your passion."
Yet consider this quick note of caution:
Make sure with your passion you'll cash in.
For Example:
What if your passion is playing trombone?
You spend years and years trying to hone
The skill to emit the purest of tones;
But will you reap what you've sown?
Or simply work your fingers to the bone,
So you can stand in line for a loan?
Remember:
In life it pays to be practical,
Neither over didactical or under tactical;
For it not, the consequences
Tend to be quite 'dramatical,'
Or possibly morbidly theatrical.
Bottom Line:
So when deciding on what occupation to make your splash in,
Do not necessarily follow your passion,
Especially if it's something quite asinine.
Sign up instead for MY 'profession:'
Do as I say, not what you're best in!
Slowly let go
Sinking downward spirals demon-heavy
The embrace of a vaccuum
It ruptures briefly and subsides
A cataclysm and ever sedulous
The global fragments stick as sequins
Heavy ashen as marble and flecked with underworld
The sky folds as an envelope and everything is safely tucked without
To push oneself forward with assiduous aspiration
With a far right walk of the didactical rites and ever indefatigable
Slightly it breathes, choking on shadows equal to a new born
Fragile as matches it effervesces heavy as a golden skull
Solemn as a raincloud approaching as Thor
The sudden crush and several red tears, droplet by droplet
Take me to the vultures where I weigh my golden parasite
The dull luminescent skull under Thor's mighty embrace
