2:33 AM

The reason why I'm up at 2:33 AM on a Sunday morning is because of you
Not necessarily the thought of you,
But the things that made you and me Us.
As I look at the pictures,
I see someone who's happy
And someone who was just playing all along.
They say that we can't be stuck in the past
But the past is still my mind's present,
Not knowing nor wanting to know about a future without you.
I still remember the first day;
It's almost as clear as the last.
I'm realizing that I was never as important to you as you were to me,
You were my world, my galaxy
But I was only your field to play on.
I do believe I'm a better person because of you,
One with a stronger shell.
I might have made up our relationship
But I taught myself well.
We were different.
I looked past this difference
I fell for something untrue
And you more stumbled into what you saw
As an opportunity.
I hope you find someone who is loyal,
Who will treat you fairly,
Who falls in love with the sound of your voice,
The constant determination,
Your devotion to your passions,
the way I did.
Someone who loves your family,
And someone who can support you.
We've been through tough times before you and me
were supposedly we.
You found a way to take revenge
On the person who needed it the least.
Here at 2:50 AM
I realize that I'm too weak
To be appreciated.
I know it wasn't me
But you messed me up,
Thinking I'm not good enough.
I'm not beautiful enough.
I'm not talented enough.
My heart is enough
And that's what you've taken.
You still have it,
but I don't need it back.
I hope that was enough for you
Because the only thing I wanted
Was enough for me.

Show them your confidence
Bring out your poise
Make them know you're in charge.
Let them see someone they want to be,
Let them see your power.  
Make them develop a relationship with you.
Put on a different face that is different from the inside
Though you may have fear,
Weakness must not be shown.
Doubt must not be present
Fragility is not allowed.
You need to know it all
Share it all
Be what people expect you to.
Fulfill their expectations.
Don't disappoint.
Make everyone happy.
On the inside, we aren't confident and poised people.
Our fear holds us back.
We cannot live being a slave to them
We can't lose our dignity.
Our individuality comes with failures,
But these setbacks make us maturer.
