Those monsters

I hate loosing my friends to monsters,
the monsters that change people and rot their hearts,
the ones that change them to the point of no return,
the ones that steal from me,
I hate those monsters,

No, I am not talking about
jealousy and envy,
those I know how to deal with,
those two ate so many people out of my life,
I don't even budge with them,
I just walk away the
moment I notice them,

But the monsters of money,
that give people illusion that they have power
with that money,
the ones that give people illusion that
they are better than someone just
because temporarily they can buy
expensive things,
those monsters I hate...

Because with those monsters
things come only temporarily,
unlike jealousy and envy,
those are permanent illnesses that
one possesses no matter how much
money and power they have,

But power and money...
they are only temporarily but
can ruin your friendships forever
if you let them,

Some say you know your true
friends in time of need,
Not me,
I look for my  true friends
when they gain some money and
blindly think they have power...

Spring

I've opened all of the windows and doors,
so please come in and take over this closed house,

Let me feel the magic feel of the spring,
that wonderful wind, a breeze if you will,
let me feel all that was asleep within,

The wonderful sounds of those amazing singers,
as they sing their wonderful songs,
each one filled with so much love,

Let me smell the smell of the grass
let me feel the wonders of the spring,

I've opened all my windows and doors,
Spring please come in
and wake up everything within.....

So what

So what if you are surrounded with hardship,
So what if everything around you is twice as hard as the next person,
They don't live your life nor do you live theirs,

So what if each time you try something you fail,
so what if it takes you longer to do something,
so what if you are different than those around you,

Your job is to shine,
your job is to work hard,
your job is to mind your own business,
your job is to try your best,
your job is to be you,

because at the end,
You will shine twice as much
and be that much better,
and be that much more grateful
for everything you endured.
