Far From Perfect.. But I am Me..

Far From Perfect.. But I am Me..

A Poem by Onlyme

It really is quite strange
how people see being a good person
as a bad thing.

That caring and loving others
who are not even related to you
at all. Is wicked or evil or bad.

I am in the belief. I care for everyone
and try my best to love all.
Even when they are mean and nasty and hurtful.
I try never to turn my back on anyone.

Don't get me wrong. I am far from perfect
and have my own flaws and downfalls.
To fix for me.

But I know we all have just one chance of life
and living. And knowing I could die. And reflecting
back on my life and seeing I was a nasty horrible person
does not fill me with glee at all. Just sadness and hurt.

And I never want to leave this planet called earth.
Feeling that way. That I was like a stone. Hard, selfish
and mean. As I really could not live with myself. Knowing
I had turned my back on others. All my life.
That is just not me.

I can understand why some people close up and shun from others
. As they have been hurt so much. It's
hard to trust again anyone. Been their so many times.
Hurt by others. But I just can't close my heart, mind or
soulfully. And to be honest. I am glad I am me.

Not a bad person in general.
Got my flaws.
But I am actually an okay person
with all my problems.
And I thank God for
that one daily.

As I try to always care,
love and show compassion to others.
no matter who.

Best I can
as for me basically.

I want to meet my maker
and show him I tried and cared
because he gave us life. One chance.
to do good.

You'll never be disappointed with how you lived as long as you were happy and could make others happy. In the famous words of E.T.: "Be good". Because I really think that's all that matters in the long run. Thanks for this nice little read!
