Human nature

Human nature

A Poem by Abio Tom

stories customized to each
even though the same paths we reach

Tales told, heroics worshipped,
Cowardice withheld, success desired

Sorry we plead, most times to repeat
Better circumstances we impetrate, then our chest we beat

Any passerby we readily throw blames at
But look deep within, ourselves we have to blame

Frustration we feel
When problems have their fill

Decisions we make without thinking
Regret and sorrow come greeting

Sometimes we are intransigent
But the light from the truth we all desiderate

There are so many things to chuckle, many more to tackle
Shoulders we all want to lean on
Guidance we all crave.

You have given us a wise message that describes the past and future of mankind and the pillars who assist mankind. We are the pillars and if many falter, mankind will crumble. We are far from perfect, for we are still walking in our own ignorance but hope has not left to depart, yet. We can still alter our future if only we look inside ourselves, for one must first start within themselves, to start outside their selves. I like the way you write and your message gives us a good reminder of where our humanity stands today and were we are supposed to go. You have talent, never give up and follow your dreams.

Good job :D
