scattered
hopes
and
shattered dreams
her life
passing before her
in
milliseconds
remembering
time wasted
on
worthlessness
too many
tasks left undone
and
hopeless regrets
if she
could do it all again
it would be
different
no one
would distract or discourage her
or take her
off the path
she would
stand up
and speak
up
even if
they didn’t respect or support
or validate
her purpose
exchanging
her life for theirs
and
watching them all prosper and proliferate
at her
expense
if you and she
were to ever meet
she would
tell you
to live
your life
sing your
own song
and dreams
are never too big
they just
need to be relocated
don’t stay
too long
and don’t
leave too soon
always have
$20 hidden someplace
where no
one else can find it
and always
find time to pray
before
sunrise
watch your
friends
and let God
watch your enemies
because
sometimes they are identical twins
follow your
heart
and listen
to what it tells you
because it
will never lie
drink half
your weight in water every day
and fast
every once in a while
to keep
your soul balanced
be kind to
stay cats
they keep
the mice in check
and dance
in the rain
when it
pours
the grass
is green on your side too
and it
grows faster when you don’t stand on it
be grateful
for small things
and put big
things in their place
learn from
your mistakes
without
repeating them
and most of
all
find
another young one
and teach
her how to be
the best
that she can become
because of
what you learned from me. . .
