Stand Out


Time to write a poem.

Time to write a poem.

It can’t be boring.

It can’t be over done.

It can’t be too sad, too short, to fun.

So don’t write about life or love or trees.

Stand out. Stand out.

Above and beyond.

Above and beyond.

But what is beyond?

Search for beyond. 

Find beyond.

Have you heard of her?

She was so smart.

She went to college.

She got a job.

No one remembers her.

She followed the path.

Break the rules. 

Write a poem, write a poem.

Make in different.

Make them remember.

Stand out. Stand out.
