Humanity's Poem

Having been described in many ways,
Damned to some, and others to praise, among the hordes, moments of bliss, others of sorrow, and at times like this, you look to them all, and you wonder so, where they came from and where they'll go, some of their minds troubled, and others at ease, such fascinating creatures, none are equal to these, getting to heaven, going through hell, intentions shrouded in an emotional veil, friends and foes all side by side, both rich and poor begging for a ride, looking for the quick path to the top, and when they've reached it they don't want to stop, risking life and limb for luxuries and pleasure, selling their souls as a last resort measure, some working today for a better tomorrow, to some triumph and to others sorrow, the truth once revealed is painful and blunt, all coming down to one final stunt, an all or nothing moment of awe, will you show strength or reveal a flaw, the test is yours and yours alone, will you take this chance to claim your throne, or will you revel in your past frustration, let your mind yield to agitation, fight hard and with all your might, do what you know in your heart to be right, make an honest and respectable life, and forget about your earthly strife, work for what you wish to acquire, your spirit roaring like a blazing fire, and when you do this you will come to find, that you are no longer left behind, just remember not to take more than you give, and remember that it is your life to live
