That’s the way you are

If you reach out.

towards people

with a spirit of care

and a willingness

to embrace and love,

don’t expect it necessarily

to be returned.

 

Not everyone cares

the way you do,

or loves the things

that you love.

 

That’s just the way

people are,

but that doesn’t mean

you should stop

being you,

for that’s the way

you are.
