DESIRES AND THE PRICE TO PAY
When desire is burning hot and strong,
we often land on paths that are wrong,
we want to get to the top very fast,
then accept dodgy offers that cannot last.
Beware of doors that are opened by others,
there is always a cost that lays under the covers,
only too late we are told what to pay,
then we're trapped within a darkened sway.
We have to obey what we are told to do,
or they shut the doors on the paths we pursue,
there are no shortcuts to true success,
through knowledge and skills we do progress.
Don't become entangled in the webs of life,
it always ends up in bitterness and strife,
take the long road and build solid foundations,
through hard work and truth we find inspirations.
