As Such Life
Through all things, day to day events
of fast portions, let one thought stand
tall in your mind; you are, always have been, and always will be human.
As such you were born will live and will die imperfect.
Fear not however because this imperfection is what makes you,
I, and all we know true.
It is the blood that flows in our veins, the music that fills our ears,
and the very endless fuel that burns within our soul.
Strive never then for perfection that is not perfection
at all but only the imperfection of another strive only to retain
at your core your own imperfection, your own uniqueness,
that is your very soul.
