THE STRUGGLE IN US ALL


I have never slowed down.

Ran afraid from it all.

My pain that I harbor

from every time I fall.

 

I have hid in shame

and have froze in fear.

I've even morned the death

of someone i've held dear.

 

I have forsaken

and i have betrayed.

I have brutalized

and even enslaved.

 

I have been shattered

and I have been the breaker.

I have even been compared

to someone sinister.

 

I have sinned a lifetime,

but lived only once.

And at the drop of a dime

I can change my  voice.

 

You've see me as perfect.

Made me a godess in your sky.

But I can't say your correct,

because even i struggle to  fly.
