1 Timothy 4:12<br /> <br /> Don&rsquo;t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.

If what you want is what you need,
Then do you truly need.
To want is a wish.
A wish upon a star.
If your star fell, what would there be?

All your wants to leave.
With wishes and dreams to never be.
And if those were never to be.
Then all we know is falling.

What do we do?
Must we do what we do?
If we continue to do what we do without
Thinking of what we do
Then why exactly do what we do?

Then all the wants,
wishes,
stars,
dreams.


is completely out of reach
