We Are The Same Poem by Shane Meritt

We Are The Same

Rating: 5.0


My heart beats.
Your heart beats.
We breath the same air.
So how can you sit there and tell me i'm under you.
Like a bug under your untied shoe.
Yes there untied.
Oops looks like i lied.
You see i have a mind that will not unwind because your unkind you see this paper that is signed... its my degree in psychology so her's my apology for leaving you mind in a fog.
Don't stand there staring and start caring for yourself.
So stand up, brush the dirt of your shirt and make a trail of your own.
Seems like life gave you the cold shoulder but you grow older and realize it's not over until death's hand grabs you and makes you stop.
But don't forget when you're making your trail to have a set goal to achieve and you will not believe the feeling of success will overwhelm you.
This goal i have reached on my trail.
See i fought my fight to prove i'm right my words taking off in flight to reach my maximum height so i know my futures very bright.
Run your trail and make yourself known, make your work shown. When i look at you i want to see a man on his throne.
Let your smile shine and don't whine if the going gets tough you'll be fine.
Get and education so you're not one of the stationed across the seas.
because they believed that they couldn't be better than those with C's
Don't hate, have peace an unity because your part of a community so take this opportunity to control your life.
Being afraid of the road ahead of you is like regretting the road behind you.
It's useless.
You cant change what happened in the past because it happens to fast what you need to do is make the present last and have a blast before it's to late.
Death gets closer every day.
So live you life like your not here to stay, go out and play but don't go astray from the path you have chosen.
Before you continue you must stop. breathe. and listen to what people have to say.
So before you leave me remember you cant deceive me.
do what you gotta do to be you and remain true.
Now shut up and tied your shoe.
