That Good Stuff Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Some live...
Without kept faith or hope.
Moping with their negative feelings.
And expressing to show this,
To whomever may listen wherever they go.

Yes, some live...
Without kept faith or hope.
Doped up on the making of excuses.
And heard from coast to coast.

But you...
Don't give your good stuff up.
Don't be the one deceived.
By a negativity to believe.
No, don't you...
Be the one troubled and fussed up.
Frustrated and one to bait.
To stop for you that feeling.
For you to know it is good stuff.

Some will never feel,
That good stuff.
Some will never know,
That good stuff.
Some will never feel,
That good stuff.
To keep it up and feel it real.

Some live,
Without kept faith or hope.
Moping with their negative feelings.
Shown and heard from coast to coast.
But you...
Don't give your good stuff up.
Don't be the one deceived,
By a negativity to believe.

Some will never feel that good stuff.
Some will never know that good stuff.
Some will just live to give up.
To feed on negativity to believe.
Some will never feel that good stuff.
To keep it up and not get enough.
Some will never know that good stuff.
Some will never feel that good stuff.
Some will just live and give up,
Not to know about that good stuff.
That faith with hope delivers.
Some will just live and give up.
On faith and hope.
Some will just live and give up.
On faith.
And...
Some will just live and give up.
On hope.
And...
Some will just live to give up,
On both!
