Better

People do it every day.
They get up off the floor
They make a change
They suck it up
They. Find. A. Way.
They decide not to be losers
Nor to be consumed…
Why not you, baby girl?
Why do you keep going back and forth?
Don’t you know who you are
What you want
What you’re worth?
Can’t you just shrug this off
Can’t you just rise through this
Can’t you just decide
Can’t you just be…
Better?
