Help by Cyntia Sofia Guerrero

Help


When you look left,
And you know you need to look right,
You might think you need help.

You say that you're acting odd
And you find new things
You probably feel wrong
You might think you need help.

The quilt is invincible
And so are your thoughts
But sometimes you think
Your thoughts need help.

The mountain goes up
But you go down
Some people might think,
"You need help."

But when you stand up
And others expect you
To sit down
You reconsider having help.

The patches on
That quilt
Give a special help.

The wires attached to the computer,
Give very special help.

So the next time you looked left,
You told yourself, "Just look right."

You gave yourself help.
