Be Careful

Be careful what you wish for Cause wishes do come true Be careful what you give away Cause someday, It may return to you. Be careful what you ask for Better think it through Never know what’s in tomorrow So be careful what you choose. For sorrow comes from carelessness And pain from hasty words. Better to build up people in love Than tear them down in hurt And when the going gets too tough For you to continue on Don’t resort to magic fairies Or wishing on the sun Keep your eyes on the goal ahead Is it worth the trek? If so, then you must keep going. You haven’t reached it yet! Be careful what you dream of For dreams are sometimes right Be careful where you wish to go For someday you just might. Be careful who you choose to love But remember the choice may not be yours. Never know what may come to be Hurting hearts could start world wars. For hatred bleeds from thoughtlessness And tears spring from broken hearts. We spew out anger and hurtful words And tear others apart. When life presents us disappointment On a silver platter We can just stand around and ignore it, Act like it doesn’t matter. The pain inside must be let out, But we should be ever aware. For our pain shouldn’t bring tears to others, Nor should we be a bear. We must remember not to grow weary With our deeds and thoughts of good. For wishing is for those who don’t have The security they should. Be careful what you wish for, For it might just come true. Be careful what you deal out, It will be dealt back to you.
