It's your Life
Live a life
as you have no other viable option
Think not of what others
said or say
live your life
in your own imitable way
there must not be another
I must say
as you have more brains than they
But if a follower you want to be
then there is nothing
that anyone can do to help ye
Just polish up your brain daily
mentally
as you brush your teeth
If you can't use your brains my dear
for your own health
you must fear
all else will simply endear.

lovedly,
This one makes me pause. I don't really agree with the message but I supposed that's just your honesty in your thoughts.Here's mine
A free man
I am not
when this feet
still stands on land.
This mortal earth,
is not the true paradise
so says the scholars
whose words I've seen worth.
Then again
what I believe
are never meant
to be force onto a friend
