Self

I would change
Myself.
There would be no more days
Sulking about, feeling sorry for all my ‘misfortunes’.
No more long, wasted nights
Not living up to my potential.
I would no longer stare in the mirror,
See someone I couldn’t bear to love,
And feel unable to change at thing.
I would change it all.
I would become new, a bright fiery flame
Rushing out of the dreary mist.
I would give myself the will to become
Whoever I wanted to see in the mirror
And the best part of all is
This is entirely possible.
