Life can really hard


I’ve tried to make people understand me

Everyone has a past rather good or bad

Sometimes people get thrown together

They get a product of failures

Don’t let them scare you

I’m like a scared child that’s been shelter from a storm

 

 

We aren’t created to put others down

That’s a lack of inspiration

But rather to lift others up

Let’s motive one another

Let us consider one another to prove unto love and good works

 

You can’t change the human mind

Rather good,   sweet, understanding, and kindhearted

But instead show your love and honesty

I am queen of feelings

But rather I get viewed as confused, misunderstood, strict, and uneducated

That’s my painting of the world

The whole wide world

 

I’m a sculpture that proves

No matter where you came from, who you are or what you’ve done

You’ll always get viewed differently than who you actually really are

That’s the view of the world

 

I’m not perfect I’m far from perfect

I’ve made mistakes huge ones and small ones

But my soul is at rest

 

I’ve learned I’ll never be what the world wants

I’ll never be the full package

But ignore the world be who you are called to be
