Be yourself

 


You are important,

never forget this.

When you feel insignificant,

when it seems the sky is

raining down only on you,

pelting you, soaking through

your threadbare shoes,

remember it is not true.

You are just being

watered different,

to grow stronger

than you ever knew.

So let those rains flow

and dance in the spray

that refreshes you.

 

You are important.

You are the star

that lights

another's eyes,

when they previously

only saw scars of past lives.

You are the reason why

they smile with delight

instead of fearing the night.

You are the joyous song

they hear throughout their day,

when before

the grind of another

grey hour ticking slowly by

was all they could hear

beyond their cries.

 

You are so much more

than your own ill fitting

thoughts insist.

You are the subtle twist

of citrus in the summer air.

You are the delicate hair

that makes waves

flow green with jealousy

and the shoreline

wish you were there

to impart your beauty.

You are important.

You change lives with every

rose bud line

plucked from a mind

that is divine.

 

You are important.

The love you impart

pounds through

the beat of your heart.

Sounds the drums of optimism

to distant stars.

You are the colours

of a glaring sunset

blending into view,

a prism of ever colour

making dreams feel

like they could

really come true,

making happy tears

seep through,

when sleeps embrace

has only ever

brought nightmares

and waking has always been

a daydream that could

never grace reality.

You are the hope

when life feels blue.
