Some say I'm argumentative,

But here's a thought,

Which no one seems to wish to hear,

Because they are too busy yelling at me instead of trying to listen.

Maybe I'm just trying to have an open mind sometimes,

When did that become such a crime?

I 'argue' and debate constantly with myself on every thought I have,

I try to be so open and accepting,

But everyone seems to hate the way I work,

They seem to hate all of me,

But hey,

That's okay.

Because I'll be happy anyway,

Because I am still breathing,

So I guess I'm fine.

Sometimes it hurts and no longer am I fine,

But I will learn and grow,

I will pick myself up and go,

Never do I stay down long.

So I beg,

That you give a try,

At having an truly open mind.

No right no wrong,

Maybe there is no right or wrong,

Maybe you have distorted values or beliefs,

I'm sure I do,

But that's what times door is for.
