Follow what I say,
Read what I write.
Eat what I eat,
To ensure your future is bright.

I do what I have to do,
To fight for minor rights.
'Stress' - at the front of my mind,
While 'Happiness' - is what I strive to find.

Emotions are powerful tools,
Words influence actions.
Will you listen?Or let fear gain traction?

Nothing comes easy,
Everyone's journey is hard.
Obedience is a must,
Rules are set to guard.

A plan to be recognized,
Even publicized - to our eyes.
This is the way to live life,
So strive for it until you die.
