I’ve often heard the line is thin And often ill defined... Between genius and insanity When dealing with the mind. And start comparing merits- Of different people’s art.. To fan flames of contention And hear the fighting start. The same is true with love and hate Both passions are so strong, It’s hard to draw the line between What’s right and what is wrong- In every disagreement, Both parties have a part.. There’s nothing quite so painful As affairs which touch the heart. The saddest part of all, you see? In cases such as these- Emotions tend to enter in, And no one clearly sees.. The issues from which troubles start Where changes should be made It all becomes confusion, As the guidelines quickly fade. This world is mass confusion, There’s fear on every side. There is no place of safety- No place to run and hide. But in the midst of chaos- this one thing may be known- The person is the strongest, Who walks his path alone.

John...Wise words written by you my friend. Most the time when the chips are down you can only count on yourself and have to answer to no one but yourself. Enjoyed...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

Looks like we all have to walk alone these days. |
