Do You See It?

Do You See It?
The Dark Shadow Hanging Over?
Do You See The Shapes It Forms?
The Movements It Makes?
Do You See It Slowly Fading?
The Dark Shadow Hanging Over?

The Dark Shadow
Is Nothing But An Image.
An Image Of Who I Am
And Who I Was.

breaking over

breaking over

turning tides

listening to all those 
useless lies.

tossing and turning 
in helpless dreams 
wishing and hoping 
in endless seams.

It Will All Remain The Same.

I Keep Wondering
I Keep Thinking
I Keep Hoping
I Keep Wishing

But It Doesn't Help
It Doesn't Change Anything
It Makes Me Less
Than Who I Am.

When It Comes To Me,
Only I Can Save Myself.
Only I Can Break Out Of
The Dark And See The Light.

But It Doesn't Change Anything.
I'll Never Learn.
I'll Stay The Same
And Remain.

No Matter How Many
Times I Argue
No Matter How Many
Times I Fight
No Matter How Many
Times I Cry.

It Will All Remain The Same.
Unless I Take A Stand
Destroy My Past
Defeat My Demons.

With One Step At A Time.

Poisoning of the Mind

i feel like my mind is poisoned

like someone else is in control of what i think

i feel like there isn't much to do

i'm helpless and don't know what to do

i feel like screaming at the top of my lungs

but no words leave my lips.

it's a poisoning of the mind,

self controlled,

self centered.

Doing Better

I'm Doing Better Today
Than I Was Yesterday.


I'm Doing Better Now,
Than I Ever Was Then.


You May Have Torn Me Down
It Only Helped Me Stand Stronger Than Before.


Now I Need To Keep Looking Forward.
Now I Need To Keep Moving On.


Letting Go Of Everything In The Past
Holding On To Everything The Future Holds.


I'm Doing Better Today,
Than I Was Yesterday <3

You Are, Who You Are

It's better to stand out, than to try and fit in.
Fitting in makes you something you're not.
It Changes You.
Be WHO You are
Not What EVERYONE Else Wants You To Be.

You Are You:
Beautiful, Smart, Talented, Special, Amazing.
The List Goes On and On.

Why Try To Be Something Different
Than Who You've Become Today?
Why Try To be Something You're Not
Just To Make Other's Happy?

Why Even Bother?

You Are, Who You are
And No One Has A Say In That.
Just You, And Only You.

So, All You Girls and Boys
Who Are Trying To Fit In
And Act Like You're Someone You
Truly Are Not.

Stop And Ask Yourself,
"What Will They Think If I Be Just Me?"
You Might Think They Wont Like The Real You,
And Fake It Anyway.

AND

If You Do That, You'll Never Know
If They'll Accept You For YOU.

SO

Try It Anyway.
What's There To Lose?
You Being Mocked And Laughed At?
Judged For Liking What You Like?

If They Can't Accept You For You,
Then They Aren't Worth Being Friends With.

Sometimes

Sometimes I wonder what life would be like if I didn't go through all that I went through. How different I would be due to that. I doubt anyone would be who they are today if it weren't for what they had to overcome throughout their life, or what they will come to in their future. How we handle each situation defines who we are. Does it not? Is it simply how we overcome the obstacles in our path? Or simply how our actions take upon each decision? Or is it all just the same?
