Poem

If you feel poor than you want wealth
If you are dying than you want health
If you feel cold you want a cover
If you feel lonely than you want a lover
If you hate the day than you want the night
If you fear the dark than you want the light
If you feel like a dunce than perhaps you want school
If you feel like a dork than you want to be cool
If you're in pain than you want it to heal
If you feel insane you may want a pill
If you want to be saved than you need to pray
If you want what I have I'll tell you the way
Don't brood on the past, live in the present
Don't try to be king, be happy as a peasant
Don't fear the future it will be better tomorrow
Don't wait on love it will just bring you sorrow
Don't hold grudges, learn to forgive
Be ready to die so you can live
Try to love everyone, there's no need to hate
If they're in a hurry be patient and wait
Do something selfless and take no credit
Find peace in yourself and learn how to spread it
One cycle begins when you take your first breath
That cycle will end on the day of your death
Perhaps an endless cycle is that of the soul
It uses life cycles to allow it to grow
Notice the cycles and let them flow
Try to find faith and give up control

Thanks, that is one of my favorites.  I have 30 now and all of them are about recovery, love, pain, or spirituality.
