This One's for the Feelers

This one's for the searchers
The one's who can feel there is something not right with this world
The sensitive souls
Who get boxed into neat packages
And called the anxious ones
the depression ones

This one's for the feelers
The one's whose hearts go out to others in need
And get labelled too serious
Too intense

Well what if that was not the case
What if we said it was wrong
What if the harshness of the world
Was labelled anxious
What if the cooperates were told to get medication for its fear
Fear of empathy
Fear of feeling
Fear of equality and connection
And left the feelers to decide
On how to be and express ourselves
And allow to be human

You know
Let's protest is against the labels on the common man
And on placing the burden on the most powerful ones

Stop labelling us as weak and needing personal development
For the human development lies in the boardrooms
And on the decision makers

This ones for the thinkers
Its ok to think outside the square
You are beautiful
You are perfect just the way you are
You are whole in your brokenness

Lets look upwards together
Lets hold each others grief
For in grief lies compassion
And if compassion were to be shared
It would be able to have the strength to toppled
Over the most powerful of structures

This one's for the hearts that cry

Great poem! A wonderful ode to any one who has never quite "fit into the box" of what society says we have to be. Anyone who has been depressed, felt anxiety or refused to conform just to make others comfortable. Very uplifting and inspirational. Good job!
