Sometimes people will pass, laugh, and insult;
If you let them affect you, what is the end result?
Some may claim they want to fight, by why even begin to
fear;
If they truly wanted to dance, why does only chatter appear?
(I know avoidance seems like cowardice,
There are times when, even I feel like this).
Avoid, (unless they attack you)
Even if it makes you sad and blue;
If you fight and maybe win, you lose
For your hands will still receive a bruise.
Don`t let them get you down, with words;
Leave the squawking, for the arrogant birds.
True strength is not in the hand,
But in the will at your command.
Smile when it`s darkest out;
In the cold, lonely, black night.
For, if you do, when the dawn comes about;
The new day will never be as bright.
Do not fear the end,
For it will have it`s way;
Only try to spend
In good time, your time today.
Above all else -
Be of high hopes and good cheer,
When unhappiness does appear;
Cause when joy you outwardly send,
You`ll find happiness becomes your best friend.
