Few

Few understand what wisdom they have,

As it is concealed by their inability to find it.

Few reveal their own ideas

As they are thought to be wrong.

Few deny being unique.

Few understand that it is people like themselves

Who truly have profound beauty.

Few recognize that abilities are existing

Or that they’re inherent.

Few find the time to realize these talents

Or otherwise ignore them.

Few understand that I am as capable

Of being as significant as the next person

Yet solely show them deference.

Few have confidence in what I can do,

As they may not be right.

Few dig below the surface of the

Standard, afraid of being

Too concealed.

Few understand that living is the everyday;

And through life do not acknowledge

The current.
