You think that you can handle this,
So much you do not realize,
Naivete, it fills your eyes,
Perched out above a dark abyss,
You feel you can do anything.

One day it could come crashing down,
And fill your world with such confusion,
You'll try to find a real solution,
While you hit unbroken ground,
You'll see that you don't have those wings.

To give yourself to fate is wrong,
You have a choice that you can make,
So choose it for the future's sake,
And find the true place you belong,
Discover new doors opening.

And if we do not take our choices...
then we cannot complain against our fate.

Wise words, poet.
