People are People

People are People.

They live their own lives.

Which isn't a bad thing,

because everyone strives.

Everyone has a dream,

a wish,

a goal.

Yet stuff happens

whether big or small,

and some people

they let small things

ruin it all.

I do it too.

Unfortunately, it's human.

We all make mistakes.

It's natural,

normal, even.

We all view the world

through our own little lens

expecting other people

to make amends,

to understand,

to do all the work.

Then when they don't,

we call them a jerk.

So what does this say

about the human race?

One with many emotions

and only one "face"?

All of our secrets,

all of our lies.

Sometimes we scream them

or bottle them inside.

But one thing that's funny,

or maybe even sad;

if we accept who we are,

things might not be so bad.

So next time I think

someone is a jerk,

or things in my life

never seem to work,

I'll keep this in mind

and stick to it too.

People are People

so

You just be You.
