Unlikely though it may sound,
Doing is not the same as living.
Reality is seldom found
In cold hard gold or warm soft giving.
All that you have is you.
Nothing is so unfulfilling
As the search for the different, the new.

Unfair though it may be to face,
Daring is not the same as its end.
Running is rarely the race,
In losing you can often win.
All that you have is you.
Nothing is so prone to sin
As the search for the happy, the true.
