Throughout
your life
people will come and go,
Some
will be real
while others are just show.
Be
careful in whose heart
you deposit your dreams,
For
in a mere moment
they can be made into schemes.
There
will be times
to keep things close to your vest,
Lest
your supposed friends
take from you your best.
Learn
to get wisdom
and to walk with the wise,
Chances
are then
that you’ll not be led to your
demise.
Suddenly
if you are blessed
with an abundance of wealth,
Learn
how to operate
in a mode of stealth.
Fame,
fortune or affluence
seem to attract like files,
Those
whose real motives
are cheating and lies.
A
lot of humanity
is not bent on evil or sin,
They’re
trying to make this world
a better place if they can.
If
you’ve been blessed
with forever friends,
You
have been given something
that never ends.
