Do not catch your dreams in a net filled with holes,
For you’ll waste your energy chasing,
And squander your time with impossible goals,
As you put your dreams in a net filled with holes.
Do not hold onto love that is filled with burs,
For it deceives and beguiles,
But the only heart that loved, was yours
As it shreds yours apart with its burs.
Do not chase a high with a chemical that burn
For the excitement only lasts a moment,
And then you’ll be left empty, only to yearn,
For another chance to chase the chemical that will only burn.
