You close your eyes
You look away
You shake your head
Say 'not today'

'It's not my problem.
It's not my fate.
I'm doing fine.
My life is great'

Why should you care,
Why should you stop?
It's not your life
That's tied in knots.

It's not your problem.
It's not your fate.
Your life is fine.
You're doing great.

All I'm asking for is a chance,
A chance to prove my worth,
A chance to earn a place upon
This site to share my work

I'll show you my inner feelings,
Share insight to my soul
Relate, digest, connect the dots...
Through others work I'll scroll

Please accept me to your website
With arms that open wide
We'll laugh, we'll cry, we'll scream out loud;
Then smile, with you on side.
