Hey, man, are you okay?
You know, yeah I’m quite alright
Life’s a roller coaster
And I’m in it for the ride
At times I like the breeze
Sometimes I’m holding on real tight
You know, happiness and sorrow
But I’ll never lose my sight
I’ve had my own struggles
Faced some tribulations
Got some battle scars
But survived the situations
The heart is pretty strong
And I hold no reservations
You see, I’m always gonna love
No matter what the implications
I do not deal in hatred
Vengeance never served me
Any time I thought about it
It really felt unnerving
Unnatural to my nature
If it’s not love, it’s disturbing
Hate was never an excuse
No matter how bad I was hurting
I’d rather walk the narrow path
Never stepping out of place
Focusing on love
Set to run it like a race
So much joy to have in life
So I am keeping pace
Hurdling the obstacles
And cleaning up the space
Let me say this frankly
I am nowhere near a broken man
Sure I’ve weathered storms
But I’d never fall to their command
Never let emotions
Set a course I could not comprehend
Never let a lie
Be a truth that I would just pretend
What you see is what you get
A quiet man who is creative
Never worry, never drama
Because I find them too abrasive
Sure I’ve got some mystery
And I can be evasive
Yet I’ll always wear this smile
Because joy is so persuasive
I look into my being
And I see inherent value
And would say, no matter what they say
No matter how they assail you
Always keep your head up
Do not let hurt impale you
Because anything outside of love
Will always, surely, fail you
You ask me if I’m alright
Ask me how I’m doing
Well, I embrace the joys of life
And inhabit their renewing
And I explore in love of life
Eternally a musing
For no matter what has happened
Love is always worth perusing
