An Answer to Your Deepest Longings
If you ever shoot to fame
And the biggest deal becomes your name,
Thank your stars and enjoy the heat,
For a time will come when no one gives a shit.

If you pray for rain
And wait for the answer in vain,
Enjoy the silver lining in the scorching sun
For when the rains come,
You will think the heat was fun.

If you gaze longingly at the calm sea,
Because it is all your eyes can see,
Then wait till you see the storm
When the sea takes its monstrous form.

If you love a pretty smile
And for it, wish to walk the extra mile,
Then search for the heart's doorway- the mind,
And you will shudder at the spikes you find.

If you long for the drums of war,
And glorify and pleasure in its mindless gore,
Then lend your eyes to the vanity of a hero's death,
And you will put your sword back in its sheath.
