Open your mind.
Open your eyes.
Feel the breeze.
Live. Laugh. Love.
When the world stops spinning,
And winners stop winning,
Only then can you understand.
When you realize that you tried,
Scraped knees, the long nights you've cried,
Its all one master plan...
Happiness is what you make it.
Only cheaters try to fake it.
They hold your head underwater,
They trick you into falling farther.
But, in the end, you know in your heart,
That true happiness lies deep.
Its not easily seen.
You have to put yourself out there.
See the sights, feel the sun,
Run and laugh, and have fun.
Don't be cold. Don't hold back...
Never let your vision turn black.
Because that's when you start to slip...
That's when you freeze over and lose all hope.
That's when you become the exact thing you hate,
You took the bait.
Listen to your heart. Listen and be strong.
Speak your mind and you'll never go wrong.
Dream big, and hope bigger.
Accomplish the tasks at hand, and move on to something new.
Hold on to the things you know are true.
You will have to let some things go...
But deep inside you'll know... its right.
Open your eyes.
Feel the breeze.
Live. Laugh. Love.
When the world stops spinning,
And winners stop winning,
Only then can you understand.
When you realize that you tried,
Scraped knees, the long nights you've cried,
Its all one master plan...
Happiness is what you make it.
Only cheaters try to fake it.
They hold your head underwater,
They trick you into falling farther.
But, in the end, you know in your heart,
That true happiness lies deep.
Its not easily seen.
You have to put yourself out there.
See the sights, feel the sun,
Run and laugh, and have fun.
Don't be cold. Don't hold back...
Never let your vision turn black.
Because that's when you start to slip...
That's when you freeze over and lose all hope.
That's when you become the exact thing you hate,
You took the bait.
Listen to your heart. Listen and be strong.
Speak your mind and you'll never go wrong.
Dream big, and hope bigger.
Accomplish the tasks at hand, and move on to something new.
Hold on to the things you know are true.
You will have to let some things go...
But deep inside you'll know... its right.
Author notes
This poem is also on myspace, but some people get mad when other people comment before them, so I put it on here as well. On myspace, it says "I kinda really like this one... so be kind and comment with what you think... I appreciate it." I want you to do the same here.
How does this make you feel about yourself?
