holding heart lit torches

What We Do To Win, Part Iii

...I never did win a trail-run,
but thought I’d do good in the end,
a good deal of respect I’d won,
and in Tak found a lifelong friend…
I guess that makes me a ‘loser,’ then.

Ethreal

From when I was young
my mother always
told me
there is an ethereal light
peeking out
from the tunnel
of darkness
secretly guiding me
to my lifelong destiny
of gratifying greatness!

It Is Worth It

It is worth it
Just try harder
Continue to gain knowledge
Make your brain sharper
You need to realize
Learning is a lifelong experience
Without education
You would face a major hindrance

Words

The art of life,
a million dollar invention;
without your existence,
things would go unmentioned.

You're the begining,
the end,
a lifelong friend;
until the end of time,
words will always win.
