"Fall in love or fall in hate. Get inspired or be depressed. Ace a test or flunk a class. Make babies or make art. Speak the truth or lie and cheat. Dance on tables or sit in the corner. Life is divine Chaos. Embrace it. Forgive yourself. Breathe."

I am me.
Nobody else to be.
I fail in life.
But I also succeed.
I am me.
Don't have to be what u want me to be.
I try and try.
I laugh and cry.
I run and walk.
I yell and talk.
I love and hate.
I leave and I mate.
I am me.
Nobody else to be.
So why can't you just look and see?
