Just a girl who writes to express my inner most thoughts
The glitter and the shame The wow and the woe The wants and the needs Do we even know? Covered in gems that weigh us down Chasing the trends that never last Isn't it enough? Isn't it exhausting? Such contradictions we resort to The more we huger, the more we fall Only to find that nothing last at all So what are we chasing, what are we doing? Does this ever end? What has humanity become? I am disgusted Myself included

Materialism
Mummy I love you It pains me to look pass your shell To see that inner being So many struggles that seem bleak As your daughter Helpless, what can I do to ease the pain? Thank you for bringing me to this world The worries and frustration in nurturing I am forever grateful For your sacrifices you've made I will never forget those times Where you were the only one I could rely on I'm sorry for being rude Ignoring your nags Dismissing your efforts I could not appreciate I could not understand I was too young and naive then As the years pass My wish is for you to love yourself more To be who you wanna be Start to live a life of your own Not to live for us your children Mummy, I love you

Mummy
We used to be so close We played and relied so much on each other But time is so cruel To create this deafening distance A distance that seems so far I am not that friend anymore How have you been? What have you been up to? It seems like I won't be able to ask Why has it gone this way Its harsh I know Its time where we have to part I will treasure the times we had The laughters and sorrows The times where we tried to find ourselves They are oh so precious to me Your chapter in my life has come to a close So farewell my friend Hi my acquaintance Your presence is valued But then again it will never be the same Lets just move on So bye my acquaintance Hope to see you again

Acquaintances
I don't know how I feel Lost in my whirlpool of thoughts It seems odd, what I am battling Insecure about my every move Living in a world with little confidence Am I not being sincere? Knowing the motives behind each action Makes me all the more annoyed I suppose its different values And how I am to follow But pride stops me from moving I just don't wanna be pulled at the collar I hoped for some respect Not to be treated invisible Be be treated with patience and allowed to make mistakes Isn't that how I am to be? I really don't know Jittery and paranoid Why can't they be direct Feeling lost and insecure is all that I can say

Lost and Insecure
You are who you are I am who I am We are same same but different indeed I'm sorry if I tried to change you I realized change will only become scars I will accept you for who you really are We come from different places We have different values We all think differently We are not the same It took me so long To see these differences I want to accept you I tried to love you But it was never easy What differences we have But I know I have to Only then will I see the uniqueness within Sorry for the transgressions I never meant to be Everyone is special I know you are too All that I ask for Is for you to be true

Differences
Let go I say, let go Why are you holding on so tight? Can't you feel yourself bleeding? Release all that is inside Heal these scars that bind Leave it all behind Help me please, someone Is there anyone who cares? Am I the only one leaving out my past? I want to let go but I can't Its just all so hard Come on my dear You've got to move on Learn from your past and have some hope Use them as learning experiences Accept what makes who you are Love yourself so you can love others Its been so long How can I let go Something hurts deep within me Its killing me inside I wanna be strong I wanna move on You are loved You are special Embrace all that is within you You are never alone You have a Father You are a child of God
