this is perfect, you have a really great way of putting things so positive and motivational. i love how you manage to describe things and have so much emotion and meaning in such few words. i look forward to reading more of your work, from what i can tell so far you are a amazing poet. great job :)

I love this, it is so true! It reminds me of something Atticus would say in To Kill A Mockingbird.
