Me

I am strong

Caring

Beautifully made

Careful

 

Careful

Of Others

Walls Built up to heights Unfathomable

Keep others out

Hiding away

Alone

 

Alone

Not Belonging

Peices scattered

Spread too thin to belong

Can't decide where I should be

Decision

 

Decision

Worst Enemy

Drawing and quartering my thoughts

Consequences unknown

What if? What if?

Inside

Conflict

 

Conlict

Solving Others

Dreading my own

Trying to help

Accepted

Or hated

Hate

 

Hate

Such power to such a small word

Makes people do crazy things

Hate drives revenge, turmoil, and war

But

Love

 

Love

Such power to such a small word

Makes people do crazy things

Love drives forgiveness, tranquillity, and peace

But

Fear

 

Fear

Of rejection

Of change

Of not living up

Not beng smart enough

Not being kind enough

Of not living

Really living

Insecure

 

Insecure

In Beauty

In size

Of faults

Of losing

Loss

 

Loss

Shapes us

Kills us

Molds us

Grief

Food

Lots of Food

Untold Regrets

Last words unsaid

Words

 

Words

Understand

Inform

Change Minds

Change Hearts

Fill Heads

Fill Mine

Me
