There are just some things we must learn alone.
Things we cannot mimmick, be taught, or memorize.
Things that will hurt and will agonize
Leaving us alone with no one left to apologize.
We will find faults in those around us,
We will hang on each word negative people say,
We will be broken apart and destroyed
With our souls and hearts left strewn across our physical structures.
Feeling uniquely what no one can be shown
We must learn ourselves, among other things,
How to bite our tongues through the many stings
That cementing ourselves back together brings
And to frown contently at a world that sings
And celebrates the simplicity of mindless things.
Where we know for a long while it is Nature
One day life again becomes Nature's gift
Sent to level our drifting spirits that lift our hearts to intangible temptations.
We will, in our own way, sand down the scratches in our hearts of stone
And chisel them once again into works of art
Which on their own will stand apart
Until one day soon it again will start
When someone sees the sculpture that is your heart
And begins to twist and mangle your marvelous creation.
You will submit, and you will fall
But you know how to put yourself back together.
