If I could seen the future
And just what one act of kindness would do
The domino effect that was coming
Perhaps I would not have checked on a lonely long time friend
But no.
I still would have.
That's who I am.
The only peace I ever found was when I conformed to my own nature.
I check on the weak
Try to help the sick
Pray for the broken
I feed and clothe addicts
Hurt when others hurt
Make difficult phone calls
Place virtue high
Integrity higher
Love what is real
Do what I believe is right
I am honest
Trustworthy
Kind
Faithful
Those things are not WHAT I am....
They are WHO I am.
I can not conform to world-accepted behaviors created by insecure fools.
They can't recognize genuine anymore.
They have been in the dark too long.
I don't belong there.
I will remain rare, unchanged, and mostly misunderstood.
I will be ME.
And I am beautiful whether or not I am ever seen.
