Diagnosis

In the face of beauty without a traceable flaw however hard you strive
Tomorrow will ask you to produce great courage for fear knocks at the door
Caution was always the rule what to do when unknown engine kicks into drive
You pace the floor your thoughts lost to the sirens wail

The jaw set so admired before for just superficial comment
The news shakes the stars glitz and glamour cannot guard
To trust self and achievement alone will always end in torment
Body and soul tomorrow will divide the temporal will split from the eternal

Catch the thief impossible he is but wisp of spiritual matter
We all are given warnings the refrain of the ages with greatest care watch
Why are so many tempest tossed they give heed even believe and are fooled by mindless chatter
The golden grain priceless the harvest must be completed but still they resist loving hands this holy band
All see this one face this dilemma if only from this wisdom could be owned
Still we squander the precious irretrievable moments like they will never end
His privilege afforded him unending travel not one place left where he has not been crowned
The most important one that has no equal will heaven be able to claim him as their own
