Coped seen it from all angles
All perspectives every direction
Able to understand
Trying to make sense of it all
Giving others a chance
No one is interested
Found someone else
Now they try to pry
Had to find yourself
Some where new
Don't always fit in
Moving on don't belong
Not always liked
Matched energy feeling drained
Left what was causing pain
Dropped the burdens
Let go of suffering

Mind playing tricks
Ready to argue not that person
Why bother the person doesn't listen
Dealing with a one sided
Narrow minded individuals
One starts the drama
The other interjected an opinion
No one asked but received
These blindsided tactics
Disrespectful remarks from fake ppl
No longer empowering or acknowledge these people
Family hurts you more than a stranger

Wanted to keep them whole
But things crumbled on your end
No one to blame hard to explain
Change is always occurring
All the pain and memories remain
With time and space it fades away
Stayed strong for them rare they do the same
Bouncing back not staying down
Leaving town one had your heart
The other will always be apart of life
Memories the mind treasures hard to forget
Grew up became an adult all on big jolt

A confession to cleanse the soul
Protecting others taking the bullets
Helping family made out to be the villain
Taking one for the team working hardest
Soon to be a future lead tired of settling
Hated for being a shooting star
Working hard striving in life
His name slandered by friends
Other quick to believe the lies
Staying loyal seen as a threat
Standing tall with moral standards
The social rep ruined by people
Who don't try but expect everything
Spoke the truth it's the right thing to do
Called people on the nonsense

Stand alone writing it down
Use to take on the world
Pick and choose those battles
Not always going to win the struggle
Learn more from losing life lessons
Not always defeat but personal growth
Respect goes both ways not one
Love yourself don't deny it
The right people will accept you
All the wrong hate on you
Try to change everything
Never satisfied with themselves
After destroying your being
Instead of taking time to understand

Always fighting to survive
Fell in love with the wrong girl
Associated with the wrong crowd
Working hard for false promise
Sacrificed through though time
Sober living no one believed
Embraced being alone
The only way it could be done
Felt like no one care pushed out
Remember for failure rise
Flaws pointed out knocking effort
Being ill seen new perspective
First time experiencing love in support

Silence in the million of no where
Thinking how to go back
Would rather be lost in the moment
So far from home it's not the same
Kept promises don't want to do it anymore
Stayed quiet to keep the peace
Getting provoked never good enough
Tried to fit in not happy with the outcome
It's not fun anymore can't pretend anymore
From love to hurt not making it easy
Always hard for them to be happy
For anyone they have more than most
Never been materialistic it's how you treat others

The things you don't want to talk about
The things that hurt you cause suffering
Those pains make you stronger, better
Dealing with those cluttered emotions
A pondering mind makes it worse
Confrontation minimizes pent up anxiety
Made up scenarios that never happen
Things feel real compared to reality
Staying calm levels it out keeping peace
Acting on that frustration cause chaos
Disconnected from uncomfortable situations
Know your worth trust your value
Others disagree don't lower yourself
Criticism makes you better not setttle

She always told him
Pursue your dreams
He didn't always
Believe in himself
He got distracted by work
He never got hired
Didn't want to give up
On his dreams still writing
They met at the community college
They were accepting of one another
She was his friend
Sad when she moved away
She'd come visit him
They hung out caught up

Praying for family not ready to let go
Sorry feels like time is running out
Staying strong feeling vulnerable
Wanting to take it not them
Praying to be saved
Living in fear dk what's real
Lies are the truth fully believe
The truth made out to be a lie
So many ignored and excuses
Part of getting older more white hairs
Body doesn't heal the same
Taking it easy pushing through
Slowing down physically
Mentally pushing through

He was asked "what happened to your ****?" He didn't know how to respond. He didn't know if he was being sexually harassed or being checked out. He found motivation to work out since all he does is write.
He was over his life being on hold and tired of waiting on others. He loved people but can't get motivated from negative people. He seen good in them, too bad they didn't see it in themselves.

She's a friend nothing more
Soon to be a memory moving on
Keeping a distance staying strong
Can't get close to anyone hard to do
Come and go without reason
Different seasons trying to adjust
Hard to adapt no say or control
Feels like time is running out
On the go continuously hanging on
Ready to let go without a safety net
An endless fall in unlimited space
Feeling consumed limitless pressure
Hard to breathe clouded judgement
Wanting to be there missing out
Not there mind missing everyone

The athlete within wants out lots of wear and tear over the years. Conflicts with being responsible; trying to find a balance. Work takes away from training, but money is needed to invest in your skills/talent.

Always trying to save the girl
She keeps running back to danger
She doesn't want to be saved
You are not the hero in her story
She's trying to save the villain
No love for the hero
She treats him like a zero
Prefers the bad boy over the good
He's a hopeless romantic
Trying to save the day
He's romantically hopeless for love
Had to walk away being written off
His chapter was over came to an end
Starting over writing his story

Reaching out to an old friend
Had one anothers back since day one
Something wasn't right ruining the vibe
Had to ask noticed a change in the tone
Things weren't right something had changed
Hot and cold not the person from before
Gave advice most of all there for support
Trying to keep up on friends some let you go
Always took them back flaw and all
Someone has problems lost in the struggle
Everyone is going through something.

At the gym clearing this mind
Full of ideas that are ignored
Living with betrayal
Always honest recieving lies
Did the work got demoted
The drama not my problem
Stuck in the middle
Recieving the backlash
Made it fun now it's lost value
Instead of forward went back a few steps

Apologized for the wrong doing
Still penalized the grudge going strong
Changed behavior seen the same
Living in the present not the past
Dealing with difficult people
Prefer to keep a distance
Stayed away tried to help
Gave advice to be ignored
Tired of being the voice of reason
Depart from negativity bad vibes
Prefer to be solo not into crowds
Wanted to be close turned away

Focused on his blessings tired of taking on people that wasted his time. They didn't help him and he didn't owe them anything. He put his life in hold so many distractions doing things that he didn't have to do. He thought it matter turns out it wasn't him and it didn't do him any favors.
Happy for others when he made moves, or planned things no one got behind him. He was always supportive but when he had ideas they'd be shut down told he was crazy making what he wanted seem pointless like a waste of time.
He was always determined at work but thought use that energy to finish school. He wanted to learn and apply it. Always writing made him happy he got lost in it. Staying positive creating wanting to publish his work. Shared many thoughts ideas.
Started to draw using colors and paint another way to get out all the stuff within instead of being self destructive. Like a bomb ready to explode imploding within. Trying to do what's right not take anything personal.
