Monday Thru Sunday


Look at yourself

Are you broken yet

Are you crying today

Are you lonely right now

Are you sure everything is okay

 

What I want you to do is look into a mirror and say this to yourself

'I am me

No one else but me

I am and will be the first person to make myself happy

No matter the day, time, or place; a smile should be placed on my face

weather it's the whole time or just for a second

it needs to be done

I am born before the other that came after me because someone thought that it should be about me

No one can change my happiness because no one can decide my life for me

I know who I am

It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks about me

You can't change me

I was born in this world to live my life, 

not for it to be ran by others

So today, I am proud to say that I am awesome

because it's awesome to be me

And I should feel that way everyday.

Today is just begining of the future

I am ready'
