relevance
some days you want to clarify illustrate fix and explain a million and one things for those who doubt and dismay
you want them to get it to understand to get you to really see you
not sure why because they won't and it shouldn't even matter
every time you try connecting with someone you strongly feel should know you should like you but really doesn't who-knows-why
you feel you must tell them every single detail fill in every missing piece keep trying to bridge that gap convince them
you're often disappointed but you rarely learn your lesson you usually try again
maybe that's okay though maybe it means you haven't lost faith in the human race
in the kindness and potential depth of people reaching out sharing their stories sharing their lives
maybe someday you'll know to only focus on the right ones to realize that labels given don't always mean people behave as such
once-in-awhile noting too your own reaction to others how maybe you respond similarly
words tinged with anger jealousy and fear more often than you admit even alone and to yourself
how to change the world perhaps you will agree it never hurts to concentrate on being open light and free
