Analysis of Passion



What's your passion?
Does it ignite that raging fire ?
Something deep within, that deep desire?
So consuming, it becomes an enigma, a fashion?

For some, it's owning that fancy sports car
Other's,it's becoming that superstar
Other's it's that visa to some foreign land
Some,it's an education their minds to expand.
To escape the downturn that impoverished their hand.

What's your's ;is it the injustice that renders our land unfair ?
Or criminality that for some is a dreadful scare?
Which cause many to shed unnecessary tears?
Making them pent up with dreadful fears ?

If for you it's the exterior circumstances that fashions your passion
Then it's time to evaluate your life
Because life will always be filled with wars and strives
Let me issue you this word of caution
As you make this quest of passion
Happiness will never visit your gate
If negative situations empowers your gait
Why not let the positives inspire your heart
Recreating in you a new start

Sustaining a positive momentum
Enlisting that circumscribed addendum
Creating that sustained impact
Lifting your soul to a place that will not lack

Such inner peace it will release
Passions from within are the ones that win
Don't let the exterior circumstances your spirit hurt
Let the raging passions from within, show how mighty is your worth !!!
