Misconceptions

It has felt like a century since I've done anything on wattpad.  Life had gotten so busy and I had to figure things out. Honestly, it was terrible I had to go through things I wish no one has to, God has a reason for it though and I have to trust His master plan, it was a struggle and I messed up but I'm back now with a lot of wisdom and confidence, I know who I am and I know my purpose.

Title: Misconceptions

We'll start with our broken smiles

It's the best we've got

It might seem like so little

But still I think it's a lot

Through life's struggles we've all fought

Lessons needing learning

Experiences not taught

Real is real it couldn't be bought

I love characters

People who are unique

I look under exteriors to gain a peek

Strength of lions disguised in meek

Unconcerned with fab or being chic

Worth listening to if allowed to speak

The stories they tell will make your eyes leak

For in the end we are all broken

Stumbling and choking

Disguising hurt with our joking

Victims of others and their poking

So look close and maybe you'll see

Eyes that aren't blank

Hearts that aren't empty

Who we think of as complicated

In the end might not be

They might push when others come close

Yet they are affectionate times three

Just a bit afraid and broken

All the while wishing and wanting to be

A part of something

If only we choose to see

Those on the fringes

Are a part of the we

All we have to do

Is let them be.
