Listen up, boys and girls,

Ladies and gentlemen,

Morons and idiots alike.

I have some breaking news!

We don’t live in a television show!

Life isn’t perfect!

You’re not going to look perfect everyday

Or ace every test.

You’re going to fail and mess up a lot.

You’re going to cry and have regrets.

And I know this reality check might make you upset

But it’s the truth.

It took me a little while to realize it.

But when I did, oh my, was it a discovery.

And now, I must share that discover

With the world!

So take off those rose colored glasses

And shatter them into pieces

Because the truth to life can only be

Through one type of glass,

And it’s not the layer on the TV.
