A poem called Life...

Life is like a riddle, full of twists and turns; Better listen up or end up gettin burned
Experience what you will, and think what you must; not understanding life will leave you in the dust
I've traveled many miles and have seen many sites; if you value all these things in life, you just might get it right
I've encountered many people here, most alright some not; Know your intuition well and you won't get in a spot
For everything I've done in life, I've learned something true: this world is full of masterminds, just like me and you
Life is full of evil thoughts so stop them when you can, but just remember evil's been here about as long as MAN
Life is but a riddle, it's solution never clear; the biggest question in this puzzle is why are we all here?
Fraud religeons, form together, believing lies and such; for if they knew life had no plan, the truth is just too much!
My beliefs that I have formed are not composed of lies; but rather based on inner spirit, and my feelings deep inside
Love indeed is the most powerful of all; and the more we use it in our lives, our hope shall never fall
So collect all your thoughts and decide what you may, if you haven't solved the riddle yet, I hope you will someday
Find enjoyment in your life, it's everywhere you look; write a song, climb a mountain, or simply read a book
Try not to stress the little things, we all know life's a bitch! But only those who stay determined are the ones that strike it rich
This wealth I speak of can't be counted, nor can it be bought; Instead it's all the love in life, for that's what I was taught
My wealth is formed from all the love i've gathered in this life; from family members, trusting friends and eventually, a wife
Believe you can, then stand back for life will take it's course; since everyone has place their bets, know you're the winning horse
One last thought, before I leave, that needs to be addressed: If and when you find your place, stop cuz life will do the rest
Treat others wih kindness and show some respect; in return comforting feelings is what you should expect
Karma is real, so know thyself well; those who cause harm have sad stories to tell
But for those who are honest and true to the heart, live everyday happy-right from the start
I hope you've been listening, it matters not to me, for my mesage to the reader is just to help them see
Remember the thoughts I've shared, I hope they bring you far; If you want to solve this life of riddles....Start with where you are!!!
