Your Debt Poem by Randy McClave

Always repay your debt
But, never with remorse or regret,
Repay it with a smile and pride
Then you will have honor at your side.
When something is ever bought or sold
And if a debt on it is then owed,
Your word and your honor will then be given
And by that bond the action was driven.
Do not ever be it's slave
Don't take a debt you owe to your grave,
If you do you will be remembered in remorse
From your own actions and recourse.
A debt is a liability to repay
From which you can't ignore or walk away,
Especially if it's a debt owed to a friend or a family member
You might want to forget, but they will always remember.
If you ever did beg and worried and did moan
Because, you needed money for a loan,
Remember to always pay it back happily and quickly
Because if not, you will become emotionally sickly.
They might be suffering now because of you
From their own bills that might be overdue,
But, you just give them your own excuses
Only more doubt and worries it produces.
This I will say to the borrower
Always quickly repay your debt and never be a follower,
Remember, if you can't pay it back then never borrow
As that brings only regret and excuses and sorrow.
