Give yourself a chance

Don't try to struggle against your will;
Don't pretend to be someone
you shall never be
Please don't listen to that inner voice of yours
which says you're too kind to find a place in this world
which asks you to forget
and longs to see you
as cold as one could ever be
and so, so lonely in the end of times...
This is not you.
I DARE YOU
to stick to who you are
to allow yourself to dream
and claim for justice
and fulfill your heart
with one single apple –
I DARE YOU TO FIGHT
against what is easy
against what is cruel
or just doesn't seem right.
The other day I was watching TV
and a guy mentioned
CARPE DIEM, seize the day
because we might become food for worms
so don't you dare tell me
there's something more important
than living up to YOUR expectations;
no one else matters
more than this funny little fellow you carry inside
who lives in another dimension
and begs for the warmth
of your friendly arms...
