Confidence says: "Thank you!"

Arrogance says: "I know I am."

A misunderstood soul
With many complications
Walking a steady pace
Into the darkness

You died,
here, in my arms,
and I could do nothing
but watch as you faded away.
Come back.

I lived a large
part of my youth
carrying things
that didn’t
belong to me
Indeed I’ve carried
their loads for
too **** long
The load of how
they felt about me
the load of what
they’ve said about me
the load of how
They’ve perceived me
for far too long
These load was never
mine to carry
to begin with
Today I am free
free at last
from criticism
fears , insecurities
and other people’s
opinion
These loads
are no longer mine
to carry
Regardless
how desperate
and foolish
they may seem
