There is a person I know....
Serious, but relaxed.....
Strong, yet gentle.....
Empowered, yet humble....
A feminist whose rights shall stand proud.
Age nor race,
Gender nor religion
Means anything to this one.
Merely honesty and sincerity as
This one stands tall and real.
Not afraid...............
To be who they want to be;
To advocate what they are;
To be truthful and stand strong in the face of diversity;
Beautiful and handsome,
Different and alike.
This person is the epitome of what it means to be
Confident and commanding.
Yet command this person needs not do,
For those who see the truth shall merely follow willingly.
Like I, who have much to learn.
From this individual, can gain great insight,
And become all the better myself simply from
Knowing, this person who is content with the person
That they are..................
I know who I am,
But sometimes it makes me sad,
To know that others are treated,
In ways I cannot imagine.
My number one goal,
Is to help those I can.
But I am an army of one,
There is not much one can do alone.
I want others to see,
As clearly as anyone except me.
Because everyone is their own person,
And I never want to change
Anyone’s individual self.
I don’t think it’s right,
To make someone change,
Just to suit your needs.
No one should be afraid
To speak their mind.
Or fear for a loved ones safety,
If they don’t do what is “asked”.
Everyone on this earth is equal,
So why should anyone think
That they are better
No one is better
Because of what they
Have, look like, can do, or will do.
Everyone has one thing they can do
Better than the billions of people
On this earth,
And that is
Being
Yourself!
There’s just something about your voice,
That everytime I hear it, I have no choice.
Upon hearing it, it melts my heart,
Hearing it again makes it start
Back up again, but makes it long,
For your sweet, sweet voice that has gone.
There isn’t a thing I can do about it,
Hearing your voice makes my heart throw a fit.
That’s why I love talking to you so much,
‘Cuz only your voice is able to touch,
My heart and make it flutter.
And cause me to stammer and stutter.
I pay close attention to every word you say,
I’d be content listening to you talk all day.
Everything you tell me I’ll be sure to remember,
And if you had a fan club, you know I’d be a member.
But I’m sure that you know this already,
‘Cuz everytime I see and hear you I have to work to keep my heart steady.
Your smile is the most beautiful thing I ever could see,
That’s the reason it always entrances me.
Everything inside of me,
Just wants to be what you want me to be.
I’ll do everything I can to not let you down,
But if I ever should,
I’ll give up everything I have,
If only for your good.
I’d be the most fortunate and happiest person in the world,
If only I could genuinely call you my girl.
That doesn’t mean that you’d belong to me,
It just means that together you and I would be.
But there’s an obstacle in the way,
That prevents me from saying everything I want to say.
Sometimes that makes me cry at night,
Then I go to school, hoping that I might,
Get to see that beautiful smile of yours,
That has, already in my life, opened so many doors.
So I’d like to thank you for everything you’ve done,
And also for making my life so much fun.
I thought she was the one, but I was wrong,
The love we had is now long gone.
I did everything for her, gave her all I could,
And I loved her more deeply than I ever should.
I gave her my heart and she smashed it to bits,
This pain I’m feeling now is as bad as it gets.
I just don’t understand why she would do this to me,
Honestly, how cruel could someone be?
She told me that she loved me,
And that together we would always be.
Then I found she had a secret to hide,
And to me she lied.
I loved her so much that I forgave her,
And I thought that would make us closer than we ever were.
I was wrong, though, because she cheated,
My purpose in life had been defeated.
I was confused, lost, and alone,
The pain of a broken heart I have has now been shown.
I thought she was the one, but I was wrong,
The love had is now long gone.
When you put your arms around me,
I feel like there’s nothing I can’t do.
I can be anything I want to be,
As long as I’m with you.
Around you about nothing I feel the need to boast,
Because I believe you already care about me more than most.
And when you talk to me,
I listen oh so intently.
A, if there was ever a day when you did not smile or laugh,
It would tear my heart right in half.
And though I think about you all the time,
The only way to really express how I feel is in a rhyme.
And God must have blessed the broken road,
That led me to you.
For I have carried an enormous load,
And without Him, there’s not much I can do.
When I turn the burning hot water on,
And realize that my inner pain is gone,
I feel a great amount of peace
And I can feel a great release.
Then I turn the water off
And start to cough
Because my heart is crazy
And my vision is all hazy.
