You

Why is there so much hate in this world?

Everywhere I lend an ear I hear insults about a

HUMAN...being

 just that.

HUMAN

Being: too straight, too gay, so black, so white

I beg to be purple, to be different

Too much hate

Too much "she's so fat" and "he's not built" to make a world spin

Spinning on hatred

Spinning on a misconception that what matters is being normal, being pretty, being fit

False.

Define normal

Noun: an ideal that everyone strives for but can never actually achieve. Because normal?

Normal is just a really messed up dream.

GOODNIGHT

Nightmare

Making an  ILLusion that someone isn't good enough

Guess what?

You're enough

Repeate

You're enough

You're enough

YOU 

are beautiful.

YOU

are perfect in an imperfect world

YOU

yes you

Are enough

Period

Fly on my captain

Fly the flag of you

Be loud, be proud, be true

Most importantly...

BE YOU.
