Confusion From Within
Tell a friend your life story,
cry because you want to,
not because you have to.
dancing is more fun than walking,
so do that instead.
daisies just won't work,
roses are brilliant red.
looking into the future makes the present blurry.
clarity is what were after.
steer away from the confusion,
if you can help it,
because it wears you down,
even though confusion
along with stress, and sadness
are at some point inevitable.
talk less,
listen more,
only your instinct reaction knows best.
ask away,
is what I always say,
and shall continue on in such a fashion.
don't ever let happiness fade away.
