What Goes Around Comes Around

For You to Feel As You Feel Right

By Joshua Lino-da CostaPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

The sun rises every morning.

It moves around the earth

Not the other way around.

It shines down on everything

Bringing necessity to life

For everything below.

But most simply take

And do not give back.

They take without acknowledging

And take more than they need to survive

Without considering others around them.

But there are those who do give back.

After taking what is essential,

Return the rest for other uses.

But there are few who do, so are never known.

They are never recognised by others.

And when one of these perish,

The sun mourns.

But the others carry on.

So that when one of them perish,

They are forgotten forever.
