You have to be realistic about love,

the times you reach for the sun

are the times you burn your hand.

 

Don’t stray after a sizzling mirage,

it will consume you;

to find meaning in a meaningless world

one must look within.

 

There is passion in moulded clay

and a history of nurture and growth,

the prerogative is yours to know and learn

to attain the ever-elusive happiness.
