They will tell you what to do and how to do it;
They will tell you when to do it and why to do it.
That is when an inner voice, a deeper voice
Cries out loud: Just don't do it.
They know better than you how and why
They have the means and the power:
When enough is enough, and when it most matters
You cannot let all your dreams shatter.
When it is not a yoke, an incidental burden
To be yourself or all alone. Life is strangeness
From birth to death. Who can bear your grief
Better than you? Can you ask them to share it?
Instead of them telling you ceaselessley
How to do it, so frequently.
