Because I am me

Sun, 11/30/2014 - 17:32 -- espi

Because I am quiet, I have something to hide?

Because I smile, I have never cried?

Because I am poor,I must do bad stuff?

Because I am content, my life is not rough?

Because I am nice, I must have two faces?

Because I am young, I am behind few paces?

 

We are all misunderstood,

that does not mean we are all no good.

Always do what you need.

Never follow, only lead.

A warning to those who do as they want,

others will mock and tease and taunt.

Do as you wish without regret,

Life is too short for such a horrible debt.
