Brilliance

The feeling of someone

telling you that you're brilliant

Is the most uplifting words

I've ever heard

No need for one to think

You're less than brilliant

Be sure you appreciate

Those that you deserve

So many people

only think of themselves

Never once acknowledge

the gift that you possess

To them you're a waste

And only chat when convenient

Conveniently talk behind your back

Not direct

Look down on you

And never understand

See you as a failure

Or a threat to their plans

Never take the time

Or ever once encourage

To take that step forward

But your minds in a jam

No one in the crowd

That you could really relate

So you're forced to walk alone

With a mask on your face

Suddenly, you realize

You're In the wrong place

Walking in a pair of shoes

Thats life threatening to lace
