Intent To Earn The Learning Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Here to earn,
The process of learning.
With the intent,
To become a better human being.
And...
As I grow to know,
Negativity is the cause that effects...
Preventing my steps made to go forward.
Less attention will I give it.
More will I surrender,
Towards the light of positivity.
Done to leave the presence of darkness,
As a tool to birth...
Hopes and dreams with happiness to share.
And not a tool to use,
For selfish conflicts and division.
Never will that be my intent,
To learn and earn to become...
A better human being.
