The path

What is betrayal?
What is falling into temptation?
That path
Like any other
So easy to begin
Achievements are recognized
It feels so good
Approval, respect, and status
You abilities, your work
Deserve these things
When others walk your path
They too will receive
But you forged that way
So easily you began
A master
You are proclaimed
Power is granted
By those who aspire
To walk your path
They must follow your steps
For you forged that way
But who are you really?
Master
Or idol
Do you guide
Or do you mold
The difference so slight
The faith of your fellows
You are human as them
Enlightment is not yours to bestow
We all have possibility
What is betrayal?
You mold
What is falling into temptation?
Accepting the lie of your superiority
Return to humility
Climb away from yourself
Respect with awe
The possibility in others
Do not fall
Please stop and see where you are!
Do not fall
For you will never deem anyone good enough
To help you out
