People Never Take The Time

People Never Take The Time
But just let me make it rhyme.

We could proclaim the thought
That whomever you have sought

Know beauty is only skin deep
Love it cannot catch and keep.

So promise the next time around
You won’t be like a big clown.

Look past the cover of the book
To see the true value, don’t look.

You must embrace and act benign
For others, never take the time.
