Life lessons
With the wealth of fears to combat,
To lust you're foolish to submit,
There's one for which you'd do just that,
Though you may come to regret it,
It's best to stay in your own world,
Where there exists no woe or hurt,
Clip your wings before they're unfurled,
In hope that errs you shall avert,
Such a hollow life it would make,
Living locked in a selfless state,
There's one for whom you'd give not take,
Though it's equally a poor fate,
It's best to craft a quaint retreat,
Where there's no fear of which to speak,
And escape having to compete,
With the world's breed that's not so meek.
