Soulspeak

Coz with time ,
You conquer your fears
Accept your faults
Get over your hurt

Do away
with the Useless
Respect the Wise Ones
Love the Deserving
Protect the Feeble

You Learn to
Forgive Those Who’ve
Wronged You
Time and Again.

You learn to
Survive the extremities
That Life exposes
Your young soul to.

You Turn Wiser
As your mane turns grey
With every strand
And with Every memory.

You begin to Search
For your True Calling
Pursue your Interest
Like Silk catching Fire.

You set your Life 
Ablaze with Action
And Value those
WhoFan Your Flames.

You learn that
The Exterior Is A
Mere deception
To distract you.

And that Love
Is not Found or Hunted
But experienced
Deeply And Nurtured.

Separation is strife
And with strife
Comes Pain 
Like no other.

Your emotions become
Your vulnerability and
Your Strong Anchor
To Your Humanity.

In troubled times
Your past deeds
Come to your Aid to
Free You and your comrades.

You learn that Joy
Is profoundly beautiful
And only increases
As you spread it.

And the Past
 Never remains shackled
What Goes Around,
Comes Back around.

That Blood Speaks
Louder than any
Other Liquor
You may have fancied.

That Your beauty
Lies in how you
 Take defeat with the same
Dignity as Victory.

And finally,
Gratitude is Golden.
While God is Love
And your Soul is in Peace.

Life, as a Human
Is Worth Only
IfThe Human realises
Its True Potential.
