The Giraffe Blog – Poems by Virgenal Owens

Everyone means something to someone.

You are as important as
Ice-cold glass of water on a hot day.
You are morphine to indescribable pain.
You are "Home Sweet Home" after vacation.
You are the "Classes are Cancelled" email.
You are the game-winning touchdown.
You are the life force some dead soul always needed.

And they may have counted you out,
But you are still someone's infinity.
And they may have said you are nothing,
But you are someone's everything.

You are the gravity holding someone to earth,
And you matter.
