Perceptions

What do you see?
What do you think?
What do you feel?
Do you see what I see?
Do you think what I think?
Do you feel what I feel?
We are all the same,
Yet we are entirely different.
Don’t pretend to understand me,
Cause you don’t.
I am who I am
I can only be me.
Wishes and dreams can’t change that
Only I can.
I like who I am
It took a lifetime to get here.
I don’t intentionally hurt anyone
So don’t read into my words or actions
For something that isn’t there.
Instead, look into yourself
What is really going on?
You can’t be valued by others
If you don’t value yourself.
Life is too short to try to be someone, something you aren’t
It’s hard enough to be yourself.
Stop the tears, fears, games, moods.
Instead, live your life!
Be happy.
Do your best.
Don’t judge others.
Don’t assume to know everything.
Be kind.
Be gentle.
Be real.
What are your perceptions?
