Only Death Can Pay For Life

Only death can pay for life    
Love inspires sacrifice    
Only the heart can keep a secret    
Beware the eyes that can release it    
   
Only children are spared reality    
Sadly humans lack morality    
Only cowardice is true disgrace    
Hate can be an acquired taste    
   
Only you can write your story    
Remember ego feeds from glory    
Only emotions compel us to vent    
Resentment corrupts the innocent    
   
Only darkness can kill the light    
The broken and weak abandon the fight    
Only the abused befriend rage    
Don't let your mind act as a cage.
