"In the pursuit of virtue, don't be afraid to overtake your teacher."
"Young people should not be taken lightly. How do you know that they will not one day be better than you are now?"

Going Nowhere

We as people
Have many fears
We fear death, happiness
Even love, at times

We do not
trust ourselves
We do not believe
We can

We need to be assured
Positive. Correct.
That everything we need
Crave. Will not go anywhere

We need to be
Given the answers
The days we will make
Mistakes

We want to know
When our lives will go wrong
So we are able
To make them right

We have to be
Warned when we fall
And get hurt
Or fall in love

When happiness is going
To end.
Or when it is continuous
Everlasting

Sadly, we are not given
These luxuries
And are forced to decipher
Our own pathways
