Notes About The Poem

Be by Artsieladie

Inspired by Arshad Siddiqui. ♥

Be

"Be"

BE bold enough without insulting,
To make for yourself the choice,
To speak out against the wrongs
And for good, to use your voice.

BE brave enough, with honesty,
To listen and to follow your heart,
To BE yourself the best, BE real,
And project your truest part.

BE strong enough to BE humble
To acknowledge your mistakes,
To set aside your ego and pride,
Knowing integrity this makes.

BE confident enough to BE caring
Without for thyself in mind,
To BE compassionate with others,
Understanding and BE kind.

BE courageous enough to live your life,
As you imagine, in your dreams create,
Always with gratitude in your heart,
Allow your passions to motivate.
