"People think of themselves first and always // There is one exception which proves the rule..."


Poem Artwork

You Only Fail if You Fail to Try

 

They say they will remember but do not

How could they forget us?  Well they forgot

They never loved us quite the way we thought

 

We are surprised but should have realized

That others only care about others

When they are them or maybe their mothers

 

It seems shocking at first maybe cruel

But better you learn young than be a fool

For all your given earthly span of days

People think of themselves first and always

 

There is one exception which proves the rule

And that is when two somehow become one

Mystical union in two hearts begun

On earth to be continued in the sky

 

This is the promise of love I live by

And you only fail if you fail to try
