You twisted your perception
To believe what you wanted to believe
Without thinking of the repercussions
Your heart would feel in time,
I wasn’t about to judge
I’m imperfect myself
Mistakes made quite frequently
Learning and stepping forward,
My gut instinct will tingle
Skin start to sweat
If I stray off the path
I’ve laid down with true intent,
Be true to yourself
In mind, body and soul,
Only then will you find
Your own trail to follow
Give in to your soul’s desire
To avoid undue sorrow..
