Change
Spring suddenly came,
I learned how to talk, I learned my own name.
I made some good friends, lost a few too.
I had not done much, I had so much to do.
Hope is a desire that leads nowhere without action.
Hope is wishing for something
that you didn’t put the work in to achieve,
so it didn’t happen.
Paint my portrait in a thousand words,
In every color of my poetry.
Discard every tale you’ve ever heard
Of the perspectives that misrepresent me.
How do I better myself?
Starve off comfortability
To create parity within
To accept my flaws
and be humble in my strengths
A world where words
take us in a new direction, introspection
equates to, a change in perception
a group of men who
were courageous enough, to see their OWN reflection
