Fearfully and wonderfully designed
The mind, body and soul that is me
What you see when you look in my direction
is a reflection of the life I'm living...
of what God can give you if you'd only listen
I'm on a mission
Driven to succeed
I feed on the negativity
of those who doubt me and undoubtedly
They all will be proven wrong
And all along
what I knew to be true
Will come to pass
and I'll laugh that last laugh
as you sit back in awe and wonder
Why I never let you get me down
Why the sound of your voice
Your choice of harsh words Never hurt
Why....because they were never heard
They weren't even worth
the time you took to say them
To open your mouth and inhale in
Only to spew out hatred and cruelty
Knowing all the while your insecurity is eating you up inside
As you hide your true being
Content in being just like everyone else
Intent on pleasing everyone on this earth but yourself
You need help and I pray one day you'll seek it
Until then you're more than welcome to read this
Despite what you may believe
My world doesn't revolve around your perception of me
My life is not defined by your opinion however bleak
It's a divine force in my mind, body and soul, a spirit inside me
That speaks to my inner most core
Developes and guides me
With a power that defies even the greatest of men too blind to see
Your enemy is not I
So why you chose me to criticize
I'll never know
But I live in the hope
that one day you won't hate me
but instead appreciate me for who I am
For just as yourself
I too am only human
