Day477【Cost】

DEAR naozo

Pay

 

The moment you choose

a cost is born

 

Nothing is gained

without loss

 

And still

you hope

for an exception

 

There is none

 

It is only unseen

 

Or delayed

 

You pay

in time

in relationships

in opportunity

 

The form changes

 

The essence does not

 

Do not defer

the payment

 

Interest accrues

 

Will you pay

with resolve

or with fear

 

Choose

 

Do not search

for the cheapest cost

 

It becomes

the most expensive

 

Pay correctly

 

Do not cut

necessary pain

 

Pain

outlines value

 

Painless results

collapse quickly

 

What you pay

remains

 

What you pay

deepens

 

Cost

is not punishment

 

It is exchange

 

Equal

to what you chose

 

Pay

 

Do not run

 

Only beyond payment

does the next appear
