MY LIFE, A BUILDING

LIKE WHEN A TALL BUILDING
COLLAPSES
PIECE BY PIECE, INCH BY INCH
YOU BUILD IT BACK UP
NEW NAILS, NEW BEAMS, NEW SUPPORTS
FEELING SO PROUD, SO ACCOMPLISHED
SO GOOD INSIDE
JOB WELL DONE
THANK YOU SIR
BUT HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT
IF YOU REMOVED ONE OF THOSE SUPPORTS
FROM THE CENTER OF THAT BUILDING
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN
OH, YOU COULD FIND ANOTHER SUPPORT
ONE STRONG ENOUGH, ONE LONG ENOUGH
ONE JUST RIGHT ENOUGH
IN ALL YOUR SEARCHING
YOU MIGHT EVEN FIND A BETTER ONE
BUT WHY REMOVE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE
QUIT WHILE YOU ARE AHEAD
DON'T GAMBLE
SOMETIMES THOUGH, YOU HAVE TO GAMBLE
THE CHOICE IS NOT ALWAYS YOUR OWN
YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY CONSTRUCTOR
OF YOUR BUILDING
NOT THE ONLY MOLDER OF YOUR LIFE
MY LIFE...IS A BUILDING
AND YOU...ARE THE SUPPORT IN THE CENTER OF MY LIFE
