Through Fire


Through fire we walk

With fire in heart

What's consumed is not real

What's left has value

I lost those I thought where friends

The remnant was true

They never came to see me in my great need

I rejoiced greatly

I was starting to see true colors in deed

I was heart broken firstly

For I thought I had many friends and allies

What's shaken is fake

What left behind is authentic.

I never cry in the face of loss

For there lies my gain.

Quality has a price

The price for quality is

Patience, Endurance, Perseverance, Resilience and Excellence.

 

 

 

Be patient enough to Wait for the best

Be enduring enough Complete all that you start

Be resilient enough to be Firm and unshakeable

Be excellent enough to be Adorable.

Ever since I learnt how to write I never stopped writing short stories, poems and ideas. I am from Africa living in South Africa, Joburg. I am a business man with a love for music and writing. Its lovely how a poem can be turned into a song. Rhythm and Words are my closest friends. I respect The Sound of Life and the power in following your Heart which makes Music till the day you die.
