I'm always looking to help
The swimmers caught in kelp
It may seem daunting
To process all these yelps
Calmly and maturely
But it is a challenge I'm willing to accept
Everyone has a strength and underlining depth
Too complex to engulf at first glance
I see how your eyes dance
Leaving me into the state of entrance
Soley platonic but it could be a romantic
You never know with how the future twists and turns
It may make your stomach churn
But you have to adapt
To the changes gracefully and pursue
Until the red becomes blue
Stay busy until there's nothing left to do
You know that's simply impossible
There's underrated beauty in it all
And there's definitely beauty in you
You don't have to believe me at first
Your soul may be experiencing a thirst
Whatever the year is, month or century
Knowing you or not
Don't ever allow yourself to rot
Because you are too pivotal for this place
To be lost
Believe me
I used to want to die
Now I know what life can truly be like
Every minute is worth it.
I watch couples laugh together and feel warm
I see the old ladies gather together after decades of friendship and I gleam
I see a stranger another and my negativity burns at the seam
People constantly feed my dreams
With words I never thought
Would be spoken
It's so ironic
That my most noticed talent
Is spoken word
Because that's what I pay the most attention to.
Always pay attention to what's around you
You may be missing the meaning of everything
If you constantly look at only yourself
Look elsewhere
Trust me, you'll see it.
You're beautiful and wanted, please believe it.
If you have a dream, try to find a way to conceive it
If you're having the worst day, fight through the bereavement
And tack on a smile onto your face
You never know what kind of doors and pathways you can open
May God bless into this life
Or if you don't believe, please let me convince you


That you are truly something.
I just want to help as many people as I can.
