Living

Living
Some love me 
Some hate me 
Yet am still 
The man I am
Some  criticise me 
Some encourage me 
Yet am still 
Who I am
I thank God despite 
The ups and down 
Life cave's 
Yet am still 
Living 

Living
Some mock me 
Some inspire me 
Some hug me 
Some push me away 
Some pray for me 
Some wish me evil
Some open the door 
For me 
Some close it in a hurry 
Despite the life challenges
Despite the brutalities 
Of men 
Yet am still 
Living
