Beware


The day you become aware your heart is full of compassion

beware of those that have no problem using it up...

The day you realize youre into the weird and unsual

beware of those that think you're to be treated like a loose freak...

The day things get dark and your capacity for caring dimenishes

beware of the creative urges to self detruct...

The day the tables turn and you're the one who hurt someone

beware the lows of pity parties and doling out self-punishment...

The days you learn lessons about life

beware of those that refuse to grow and self refelct...
