I have times when I don't belong
Times when I’m not so strong
I have times when I cry merely because of songs
I have times when I write my poems
I thrive off appreciation
And I smile when people know them
I have thoughts
I have feelings
I have personas with experiences I’ve never been through
I have emotions
I have a hunger for knowledge
I have a thirst for added diction
I have quotes I’ve never said
I have ideas I’ve never written
I have times when I close my eyes, and I find that I have vision.
I have times when I could use a boost
Times I want to use excuses
But the truth is ignoring them induces better results
That may influence the next group of youth kids
Blessing us all with a sweeter future
