Keep Doing You

Contrary to popular belief
You won't always fall
When you take the leap
Perhaps you'll soar
You won't know
Until you jump

Contrary to popular belief
It's not every time
That you find yourself alone
You've been dumped
Helpless and alone
Perhaps you've been planted
Bloom

Contrary to popular belief
Good things don't come
To those who wait
Good things are taken
By those who go out
And work for them

......

Everything is contrary
Anything is true
Life is what
You make of it
What do you choose to believe?
Popular belief?
Your own self?

Contrary to popular belief
You'll most definitely make it
If you stop believing
In popular belief.

I love this poem. In particular this stanza really helped me look at my current situation in a whole new light. I’m actually in tears right now. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much too. I'm happy it helped.
