The Villanelle
Do not let people put limits on you,
Or tell you what you are capable of,
Since your destiny is within your view.
Do not listen to them! No matter who
Tells you that you will never rise above,
Do not let people put limits on you.
You can do it, whenever you choose to
Prove your talent, with a heart full of love,
Since your destiny is within your view.
Just do you, no matter what else you do!
Because your talent fits you like a glove,
Do not let people put limits on you.
Do not take the opinions of the few.
Fly above them, peacefully, like a dove,
Since your destiny is within your view.
Ignore the ones who do not have a clue,
Resisting their opinions with a shove.
Do not let people put limits on you,
Since your destiny is within your view.
