DECORATION

I wanted to taste honor; something better than cars, houses, diamonds and the pursuit of being a scholar.

There was no amount of time that could have been wasted. No limit to the resources that could have been used.

I would have given you the world, even if it meant taking my own away. I would have given you the last gleam of light, even if it meant I had to live without day in my life.

My last breath would have been so easily yours. I would have taken all your pain; even your tears, cuts and sores.

Unfortunately, many seasons have past; and now I'm considered a scholar. I am showered with diamonds, live in a cozy house and own a beautiful car. But yet, I am without honor.

I'm covered in sores, cuts and tears; my body is full of pain and so I'm close to taking my last breath, it's not funny.

My life is without day; as if, the last gleam of light went out to play. My whole world is missing; as if, someone gave it away.

The limit to my resources have been used, and all my time has been wasted. All that is left now, is honor that was never tasted.
