First of all…

You are beautiful
The most precious thing
To cleave to my memory

Who are you gonna believe – them or me?
Don’t let the world kill your spirit

Secondly you are smart
You think with your mind
And love with your heart

To them
This is where your troubles start
Don’t let the world kill your spirit

There are things about you
The world wishes it had
But the world would rather tear you down
Than edify your ambition

It appears vicious & glad
Indebted by
Your precarious position

Last but not least
I love you
You make me feel alive
By just being near me

To breathe you in
Has somehow kept me seeing clearly

Don’t let the world kill your spirit

    It’s so easy to let others destroy a spirit, that’s people such as yourself are needed, to point that out, to share feelings, to let others know they’re loved and perfect the way they are. Excellent. Michael

    Very nicely written, we have have those times when we just feel broken. It is so nice to have people like you around who remind us that we are special.
