Jewel Thief

What I say and what I do
I learned from one or all of you.
And when you lived your very best
I stole your gems for my treasure chest.

Unfortunately, this too is true
I learned to compromise from you.
The times you cheated or you lied
Just made me feel more justified.

But don't lose heart I also learned
To hate my sins each time you turned.
Each weakness that you've overcome
Has also shaped what I've become.

We all are learning everyday
From what others choose to do and say.
You never know who steals your jewels
Or uses you to break the rules.

So do your best and give your all
Be careful, don't let others fall.
God made you to hopefully
Teach me the best that I can be.
