Pessimistically

Pessimistic

There is pain 
Confusion 

Anger
The world
Can be messy
Sometimes
It can seem
Like the world
Has gone crazy
Its easy to focus on
All the things 
That are going 
Wrong
Living pessimistically
Instead of looking
Seeing all 
The beauty
That is all 
Around us
We live in
A beautiful world
Even as far
As things have gotten
We still live
In a beautiful place
Even as crazy as things
Might seem
There are still people
Who are living
And showing people
What love really means
There are still people
Helping people heal
Showing people kindness
Grace
Mercy
Showing people
How to love
One heart
At a time
There is still
Healing
We are never
Too far away
To receive it
We just have to 
Start looking
And finding the beauty
Instead of always
Seeing the negative
Living pessimistically
And start seeing
Things
In a different way

very beautiful poem, loved the short lines and the way u express, so simple and so very true! We all should start to look to this life with more open eyes, to see all beauty and let it come inside of us...to not feel negative about all around, even about our most close people...That are lesson, which everyone should learn, i wish these people are more & more! My favorite verses are :
There is still
Healing
We are never
Too far away
To receive it
We just have to
Start looking
And finding the beauty

Thank you. I am glad you could receive the true and deeper meaning behind this poem. Life is about how you view it and being able to see the inner beauty and light and love that is all around us if you choose to look

and the simple truth is "we see what we look for" Your words have lots of wisdom in them, well said.

Thank you

Very good poem. So simple yet so strong. The athmosphere it presented was chaotic yet understaning. I also love the idea of how pessimism can lead to a different perception in life. The only thing is the 'confusing', in the second line, I think it's supposed to be confusion. Nonetheless, there is no doubt in its attractiveness.

Thank you. I really appreciate it. I will see if I can go to the manage and edit it

I am wondering if it is supposed to say confusion, rather than confusing...

"Even as crazy as things
might seem"---I think thats what you meant instead, but I am not entirely sure.

I like this poem! It is well written and has a raw truth to the end of it. There are very few people that can write about things so true when the peoms turn out less accurate than they wanted.

Thank you. I really appreciate it
