The true depth of a human soul

Is measured by extension of self

To laugh to love and to grow old

while building emotional wealth

.

For at the end of your life's candle

The gold cannot be taken across

The light will flicker as you ungrip the handle

Your kindness, the only profit or loss

.

Be smart be nice be loyal and be kind

Leave all but those who are left behind

For the selfless and the happy are intertwined

Long ago, I made up my mind

.

The type for me is giving, not vain

That loves the crazy and accepts the insane

Who helps out instead of laying the blame

And loves instead of increasing the pain

.

The size of your heart is hard to disguise

It shines from your smile and glows in your eyes

the harder the journey the greater the prize

I want to be there, through all the mistakes  I’m just not sure I have what it takes

Just because I want to  Doesn’t mean that I can  I thought I’d be okay  and that was the plan

I’m a fixer, the help but I’m broken myself.  How can you build things without being built yourself

I have enough worries I don’t need another Can’t handle the flurry of another worried brother.

I guess I’m resistant  to sit back so distant so that makes me weak and the future looks bleak
