Love Does Not Suck It Lives By Example

Life sucks most times, I know
There are many reasons it does
but I never met one life 
who didn’t learn something from it

Sooner or later we all learn 
the many lessons it teaches
some very good, others not so good
but we all truck along as if we are lords of truth

Instead we are Lords of BS living a fake life 
teaching putrid lessons of unreality to our children
it doesn’t matter if we’re rich or poor
we teach bad lessons easily, good ones not so easily

Why is that? 
Well, the good ones are hard
Why is that?
Well, the good ones have to live by example
that's where we all fall down

When our minds wander
away from honesty and truth
we are taken in foolishly by the shimmer of fake glitter 
and blinded we are distracted so we falter 

There are more important truths than money, lies or fake glitter
truths like honor, integrity, love and compassion 
these higher instincts in humans will always rise 
Love does not suck it ascends

The brightness of its glow will light the way 
away from this crippled world.
