Assignment: Pick the lyrics of one of two given songs and write a poem based on it. I chose "Don't Lose Hope"
It'll Be OK
You look at yourself in the mirror
And all you can see
Are the zits and lines and flaws,
But that's not what I see.
It'll be OK,
Just wait and see.
Cuz everything changes
Eventually.
Report card's due and you know
All there is are Ds,
And you know you can't do the work,
But that's not what I believe.
It'll be OK,
Just wait and see.
Cuz everything changes
Eventually.
All your friends going out on a date.
You stay home watchin' Glee.
Your ugly face will never catch a boy,
But that's not what I see.
It'll be OK,
Just wait and see.
Cuz everything changes
Eventually.
You're 30 now: good job, kids and home.
You realize you're happy.
You waited, and worked, and never gave up,
And now you see what I see.
It'll be OK,
You waited to see.
Cuz everything changes
Eventually.
