We can be kind or we can be human
Many of us
Go around
Breaking hearts
Without knowing
Making blue
Skies turn grey
Turning sunsets
Into darkness
Yet thinking
Only of
Ourselves as
We tromp
Through fields
Of light
But we
Can change
Change doesn't
Come naturally
So we have to
Do something
To make it
Happen we
Have to be
Kind
Open our hearts
To newcomers
And always care
For others
How do
We know if
We are being
Selfish if we
Can't be kind?
Tragic Times Help You get Through Things You’d Never Think Would Happen
Gloomy skies
Reflect the mood
Of the people
Scattered in tears
Around us
We cry too
And let the
Clouds cry on
Us as well
They carried him
Into the church
As fingernails
Dug into palms
And sweat
Dripped from
Foreheads and
Then there was
A light
It shone down
From the skies
And reflected
Onto the coffin
Painted blue
As the ocean
And then
All got better
Rain stopped
And so did tears
Smiles wiped
The gloominess
Out of the day
And everything
Was okay
Let a new day be another opportunity for you to shine
Don't let the
Bad days
Get you down
Always remember
That you have
Something special
Inside of you
That no one
Else does
You should not
Fear a new day
And hide behind
It's imperfections
You should await
It with glory
In your heart
You should not
Worry about going
To work or to
School just because
You care about
What others think about you
You should always
Believe in yourself
And find your
Inner beauty from
What you believe
Will make the
World a better place
Because you are
Special and there
Is no other person
In the world
Like you
Let every day be another opportunity for you to shine
Don't let
The bad days
Get you down
Always remember
That you have
Something special
Inside of you
That no one
Else does
You should not
Fear a new day
You should wait
For it with
Glory in your heart
You should not
Dread going to
School or work
Because everyone
Thinks that you
Are weird
You should not
Care what they think
Just shine with
All your heart
And never forget
That you have
Beauty inside
Of you
Calm and clear
Sometimes I
Lay down
On my
Bed with
My head full
Of thoughts
And I
Can't drift
Off to sleep
I get
Nervous
And I think
About what
Time it
Is and
What I'm
Going to
Do if
I'm tired
The next
Day and on
And on
But mediation
Will help
Me become
Calm
My thoughts
Will drift off
And sleep
Will call
My name
And take
Control of
Me
