The Silver Lining

I am short- no- I can fit in small spaces

I am crazy- no- I am unique

I am quiet- no- I organize my thoughts

I am human.

You are human

Everything

            We

                        Do

                                    Is

                                                Awesome

What other species have so large brains-

Can walk on two feet-

Have opposable thumbs-

Can write this poem-

Can read this poem?

You are awesomest thing here.

Because you’re you.

Believe it

Be it

Don’t be afraid

To

            Be

                        Yourself

What’s the point of individuality?

If society shuns you for being-

Funny-     Original-     Crazy-

Short-     Tall-     Gay-

Black-     White-     Quiet-

Eager-    Talkative-     OCD?

What’s the point if we

CAN’T BE DIFFERENT?

Find the silver lining of everything.

Didn’t pass- study for next time.

Didn’t make it- you tried your best.

You are awesome.
