and your chances of having to keep incarnating

All other men must pay her fee
Still I must confess
My family’s stress
But Polish dance lessons aren’t free

Who Suffers

The people who truly believes
And honors the word of God
Suffers the most in life
No one tells you
These things, or even
Warn you about it

once our futures burned,
Unspoken grief fills every

We weep for lessons that we
learned too late.

everyday 

a lesson learned

some bring pleasure 

others hurt

to be sure

the ones that hurt

more valuable
