The Individual's Poem

Think outside of the box
and don't mind the envious black eyes
that look at you with grinning jealous smiles.
Think outside of the box
and love yourself and love others,
love everyone
good and bad, they hate when they see you smiling,
and having a good day.
Take a walk,
or run,
dance in the rain,
don't mind those critics
laughing at you and calling you "crazy."
They don't know life,
they don't know love,
but you, you know love and life very well,
and you know the one thing
many do not,
and that is loving life.

Give to the poor,
give to the rich,
love and give more love,
those girls and boys will break your heart,
and they will snap your back,
but never doubt,
never hate,
never negotiate.
Love everything
and don't worry about anything.
The world will kill you,
and when your down in the mud
and burning away
and no one is watching you,
you are strong and don't depend on anyone,
but yourself.
Don't lose faith,
Don't hate yourself, don't hate at all.
Be good
and sing songs
and love everyone!
Have a good one,
and you'll never drive straight,
if your looking through the rearview mirror all your life.
Enjoy life
and Smile.
