Premium Membership - Part 2

Like when Texas passes a law of if you get an abortion, you’ll get jail time and fined. 
Like when a man can rape you, do no time, turn you in and collect a reward, if he is so inclined. 
Like when Coldplay uses a Metaphor like line
To entertain us and try to inspire us to pass some wretched time

I just wrote this today to prove that I exist
In a world, where people are passed by every day and just to be missed 
Welcome to part two of my rhymes with a little twist
Let’s go for some positivety now in a world that insist 

The ego likes words like you are pretty, handsome, thin and fit
To blind the mind of not being genuine and quick with witt
Though you were always enough and needed no ones approval 
For their on-going games of brutal with some jewels

If no one told you today you were always enough, deserving and loved
I think its time my soul asked for a world refund
I hate that so many people are fighting a constant battle of being comfortable in their own skin
But I completely understand especially when you have those who swear you are committing a MAN-MADE sin

Look I get your religion is sacred to you till kingdom come 
But everyone deserves to feel like they have a place in this world and living to a beat of their own drum
Like Billy Joel states 
I’d rather laugh with the sinners and cry with the saints

Sinners are definitely much more fun and know how to relate
For they were shunned from their, loved ones when they were just trying to be transparent and great 
Sinner is such a wide open term
Used deliriously by some with wretched germs

Some have never even committed a crime
Just self-inflicted wombs to pass by the time 
Some labeled as saints have committed some heinous crimes 
For which they never got caught to do any rightful time

I’m going off on a tangent but my point to this is
Sometimes those who try to bring you down 
Can’t even stand to look at the sight of themselves 
So, they have to try insult you in hopes that you rebel

So remember that you always shine bright
Like a star when the moon is out at night
I’m done now and putting this poem to rest
Let’s see if I get accepted and pass this premium test

Ciao!

I came to see 'cause I'm his·panicking too ~ and one of my "Quotes" ~ "The greatest weapon of the oppressed is: THE TRUTH". ~ Keep it up 'till they don't know whether to shït or go blind!

Texans are not noted for living happy lives so they are prone to sticking their noses in their neighbour's affairs . . . Ciao, Rita!

Well, Rita, do you think you passed the test? In this case, I'd say that is up to you. I certainly am not going to make assessments or judgments about your treatise. Write on!
