Character

By Richard J Sereday Jr

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

It's so easy to fall for the good looks and that outer beauty, but so hard then to search inside for those things of beauty that must be. But when you fall in love with what is inside, it's easy, for the rest will in time come. So, be careful and ask yourself just how lonely am I, and does character and substance really matter to me. Maybe more than you'll ever know, until you learn these things the hard way.Me, I'm holding out, for I know it's worth the wait. Instant love just doesn't taste the same, and just like it came, we will find that all to often, it is gone in an instant. Written January 29th, 2002 © on Jan 29 2002 04:20 AM PST   0 • 10
