The Heart’s Journey

In the journey of life, a bus we ride

With seats to fill, and time to bide

Not every soul deserves a place

To be a common passenger in our sacred space

We open doors to those who shine

Whose presence makes our spirits climb

Yet, some may board with shadows cast

Their fleeting stay, not meant to last

Why let the unworthy take a seat

When their company leaves us incomplete?

Our energy is precious, our time a gracious gift to give

Reserve them for those who help your spirit live

The right to sit beside us here

To share in laughter, joy, and tears

Choose wisely, and let them in

Those who are worthy, let the ride begin

A friend, a love, a kindred soul

Who helps you reach your highest goal

They'll share your journey, through thick and thin

These are the ones you should let within

Let not the noise of the world decide

Who joins you on this wondrous ride

Listen to your heart, it knows the way

To find the ones who should stay

In the quiet moments, reflect and see

Who truly deserves your energy

For life's too short to waste on those

Who dim your light and steal your prose

As you travel, choose with care

The passengers who'll always be there

For in this bus of life you'll find

The ones who matter, heart and mind
