The Role of Being

A characteristic of being alive

Involves much more

Than merely passing by,

And the ones who try

Would usually defy

All that is conventional

While being respectful,

Especially since

Civil disobedience

Has its own unique sense

Of elegance and eloquence,

And having a role to play

While making the most out of every day

Can merge the heart and the soul

In a world that is truly whole,

And overcoming adversity

Through the acceptance of reality

Can celebrate worldwide diversity

As people strive to thrive

While making the most

Out of being alive
