Just Be
JUST BE
I have been through courts, I have been through divorce,
I have come up short, I have seen real support.
I have lost many friends, some of them to death,
But others were lost , to a lack of respect.
I have spent a lot of time alone, no one by my side,
The ones I have loved the most, are those that have died.
I have lost many lovers, I miss how they have held my hand,
They judged me as a man, not for who I am.
I am plagued by mental illness, some call me crazy,
Others just look at me and say I am fat and lazy.
I have been pushed around ever since I was a baby,
I used to cry alot, but lately I have been angry.
I am merely a man, I know I am nothing special,
But we are all special , our soul and our vessel.
Never forget that you will set yourself free,
And you will be able to be whatever you want to be.
