Vanity
Vanity
Go out young man and enjoy your life,
Once you have seen the world be happy.
Do not be afraid or let others deter you.
Love and truth are a part of your quest,
Only you will know, be honest with yourself.
Value yourself as well as others, this will help you find
Empathy with everything you meet
So you will need to posess love and compassion
You will experence hardship, sorrow and pain,
On your journey do not encourage vanity
Until you can love without fear, you may suffer...
Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
