The crooked path......

Life has a strange way of treating us, of leading us on a pathway of joy,sadness,happiness and misery,
We try always to do the best thing,what´s right and often what others expect of us,
Finding ourselves trying to make people proud, happy, rejoicing in other peoples happiness,
While we spent time pleasing others, we consign ourselves to loneliness and solitude of thought.

We forget the needs and dreams we have for ourselves,we strive to do good, to do the right thing,
Fighting self doubt within our souls, even when unsure we are doing the responsible and honourable thing,
Each time offering just a little part of our own soul for the well being of others,
We do this in the hope everything turns out how we dreamed,wish and thought it will.

We find ourselves often in a quandary,situations where we need to show that we have some understanding of our inner self,
We seek no reward, but the reward is the happiness and joy of others,
When we look each morning in the mirror and can´t help but smile,
Waking in the morning light, gaining pleasure,gazing upon that person we love as they sleep,
