People make you sad
People also make you happy
People can vex you, manipulate you and ignore you
People can also believe you, support you and love you,
People can hurt you
People can hug you
People can make you think twice about what you say
People can see your worst and still find something worthy,
People can make you think that it’s too hard
That there are too many things wrong about you
That you are not who you want to be
That you are not who you think you are
That you are nobody to everyone
And somebody to someone
That in spite of it all, it’s fun
There are laughs
And fizzles of excitement
And waves of contentment
That you need someone
But prefer no one,
People can say that it’s ok
To be you
Whether it’s a tiny bit of an amazing person
Or a lot of a vulgar person,
The right people are your people
Your person for a minute or a season
Or someone lifetime,
Your person is your world
The right person is your person
