did ya ever wonder
\nwhat it is
\nthat made you
\nthe way you are?<\/p>\n
how did I end up such a romantic?
\nhow did I end up a crier?
\nhow did I end up with a firm resolve towards kindness
\nin spite of the life I’ve lived,
\nthe people I’ve encountered?<\/p>\n
how’d this happen to me
\nwhen it didn’t to so many others?<\/p>\n
what’s the difference?
\nwhat causes it?<\/p>\n
what makes me want to believe in the good
\nwhen so many don’t, can’t, won’t?<\/p>\n
what makes me trust
\nuntil proven I shouldn’t
\nas opposed to starting out
\nfrom a negative standpoint?<\/p>\n
what is it that makes me believe
\nthat love and kindness
\nwill eventually win over
\neven the most
\njaded
\ncruel
\npeople I encounter.<\/p>\n
I must be a glutton for punishment…<\/p>\n
nevertheless
\nI’m still gonna be
\na romantic
\nthat weeps
\nwhen affected by
\nthe beauty
\nor the anguish
\nof life<\/p>\n
all the hate,
\nanger,
\nmeanness,
\ncruelty,
\nand judgement
\nI encounter
\nmay make me stumble<\/p>\n
and still
\nI will try
\nto follow
\nthis path
\nI find myself on…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
