What's In The Bag

What’s in the bag they ask, What’s there that you might carry? What’s there that you might use? What would be there to tell your story? What if all someone got, All someone could see, Was what you carried around you? What sort of story might it tell? Would it really tell anything at all? What’s in the bag they ask, Is there any way one could really tell, How you are as a person, As a human being, As a friend, As a lover, As a brother or a sister, As someone who might be in pain, Someone who might be in love, Someone that is going through an in between, What’s in the bag they ask, Instead of maybe asking what’s inside of you, What could be going on in your heart, Your life, Your dreams, Your hopes, And everything that truly can matter, What’s in the bag, That’s all they ask, They don’t ask the true questions, The questions that really matter, No it’s just about, What’s in the bag, Something that doesn’t mean anything Something that is only skin deep, But don’t they know? Can’t they see?

Although as a person that tries to see positive in many things some things that bother me on an occasion are people that are purposely hurtful to others, those that put other people down because of something like their age, health related problems, sex, or whatever it might be, people that seem to be full of themselves, and people who just dismiss someone due to something that has gone on in their past. There are probably a few other things but I have always been a people person and when I see pain in people’s eyes from being hurt on certain things that is what upsets me the most. I’ve always been a firm believer that you never should judge a person from their past because people can always change and you cannot judge what might have happened at that time. We’ve
