The Additions You Brew | A sketch by Melanie Jane

Stand tall

Back straight

Head high

Chin up,

Parallel with the sky.

Stand tight

Stand bold

Yourself, you hold.

Be proud

Be you

The world needs

The additions you brew.

The world says things

Harsh

Kind

Confusing.

When we take in what it says

For us, what does it mean?

However grand or small

However confusing or clear

I believe that final notion

The world needs you here.
