I’m concerned for you,
Your much more than what you portray,
Hershey chocolate skin,
Yes, you are a fine looking man,
Creative mind, bright ideas,
Why must you undermine your intellect?
You don’t have to settle for such imbeciles,
I believe in what you can accomplish,
Despite past transgressions,
What’s important is that you must believe it too,
Such gentle persistence in these lines – a real call to someone to look to himself and believe in the skills he carries within him. This is so carefully phrased – no hectoring or pushiness – but real concern and care. A willingness to see the good in someone and to encourage them to see the same within themselves. Beautiful.
Thank you!
