Have you ever?

Have you ever kicked back
in that old, soft lounger
and felt the world melt around you?

Have you ever stopped to look
at that kindergartener's painting
and realize the simple, plain beauty?

Have you ever really been yourself
and stopped trying to be the girl everyone is jealous of
like you tell your friends to do?

Have you ever stopped
to read a decent poem
relax
and count your blessings?

And do you really think that this is just about other people?
Give this another read.
Have you ever...?
Have you really ever?
