Poem
When life comes at us hard we have to rise to the occasion If we cannot weather the storm we circum to a harsh invasion Our hearts become invaded by those who bring us down Our souls become possessed by questions with answers that cant be found Why do we choose to be surrounded by people that tear us apart Why not eliminate negativity and reclaim our natural heart When others continue to beat you with their continuous rejection We find ourselves stuck in search for positive affection Why suffer the treatment they give us when walking away holds a chance a chance to find something real something happy take a glance look outside your walls and see what else surrounds where you are Remember life is a choice don't let anyone contain you in a jar Escape from unhealthy treatment surround yourself with respect show those who take advantage of your kindness that you are no reject If we continue to allow their behavior to dictate our emotion We will never find those who truly give us their complete devotion People want to treat us like they don't want us in their world at all I say let them be they will no longer watch me fall I want to be in a world where people like me and support what I believe I'm tired of feeling like I'm living in a world where others choose to deceive I want to feel accepted appreciated for the person I've become over the years I refuse to believe I deserve these selfish piers I'm breathing air that they tell us we deserve to share Our opinions are hindered by our inner most fears fear of being alone suffering wiping your own tears I have been uncomfortable treated as If I don't exist I am through with negative influences positive it what I insist living under a thumb under a microscope like a failure or peasant I want to live in a world where I am completely accepted because I am pleasant to those who suffer these words I speak so fluently If you reside in that kind of world you have reason for truancy Walk away from misery find something that makes you feel whole Because living free starts with this realistic goal
