the road

the road may be long and hard,
the journey may make ur soul weary,
along this road are gems and treasures untold
along this road friends and foes alike u will meet
treasure ur friends and love ur enemies
for u see my lad, friends hoist u up when u fall,
but at the jeers of enemies,
legs regain strength to run to higher heights
wherest the road lead?
surely a place of grandeur
for a treacherous road such as this i reckon

the road may get familiar and smooth
nevertheless, forge ahead u must
for the road is not the prize
a few liberties on the road u may take
treasures and gems are not for the roadside
crowns and kingly robes
belong in the courts of kings and lords
my lad, ur world await..

this was written for my gurl Bim
who's battling surgical residency and enemies of progress
