A Pencil
A pencil
You write with it
You scribble with it
You chew on it...
Sometimes
You try not to but when you are nervous it is always there
It's your trusty pal
For writing to a pencil pal
You break it out of anger
Then tape it out of sorrow
When it gets dull
You sharpen it
Until all you have left is a stump
A stump of what it used to be
A pencil
You go to find a new one now
What do you find?
A pencil made out of plastic?
That never runs out?
No thanks
I think I will stick with my pal
Go for it
Just go for it, go!
People may say no
But whatever it is
Put on a show!
Your show may not be great
But if you rake, and you rake,
You can find something great
An idea..
Just for you!
Who cares if people boo?
You know that you are you
Isn't that what matters?
Not the place that you go
Or the clothes that you wear
Just do what you love
Your life will keep going higher
Ignore the haters
You probably will be hired
And if that's what you want...
You may build a robot
And you'll become something big
No need to wear a wig
No need for disguise
Because in your eyes
You can be anything
