It's Okay To Be Human Poem by D Loveday Morris

IT'S OK TO BE HUMAN

It's okay to be human
Be happy, be sad
Beangry and frustrated
Some wished they had

It's okay to be human
Be okay with not being okay
Those who love you will appreciate you that way
For hearts once brokenmake compassionate souls
And the ones who have failed can see stories untold

It's okay to be human
Just be, who you are
Why be someone else?
You are a gem, a superstar

It's okay to be human
Forgive and forget
Move beyond those things that cause you distress
Say you're sorry, never be too big
For when you apologise that's when you can truly live

It's okay to be human
Accept help when in need
And be that human who helps someone else breathe
For in being human, we satisfy the world's greatest need
