the battle within
nicole mckinnie Dec 2014
Trapped within a box of glass,
Watching the time slowly pass.
Wondering how ive come this far,
To let these walls,
Imprison my heart?  
Transparent they may be,
Its too hard to see,
My life passing by.
As im locked within this cage of mine.
Beating the glass, hoping it'll break,
Nothing gives, I cant take the pain.
If I leave these walls,
If I let them in,
Can I handle life,
Can I handle him?
Do I keep fighting?
Do I stay locked within?
Do I embrace all of life?
Do i give in?

No, I will fight,
I will never give in.
I will stand up tall,
I will embrace him.
Breaking through this glass,
Im finally strong.
Bring it on world,
Ive finally won.
Most of my writing, I just, write. I dont think about it. So sometimes they come out a little rough... but I think they turn out pretty good sonetimes.  Feedback is appreciated.

If you were me,
And I were you...
Would you still think the same?

Be who you are,
Be all you can be.
There is no one like you,
There is no one like me.
You are a diamond,
So unique,
So rare.
Let your beauty shine.
Beautiful and imperfect...
For that is true beauty.
Embrace it.
Im more of a dark writer. So trying to be, less dark... I guess you could say haha but this is so true, in my belief. So many people dont find value in themselves because they feel they arent as "good" or pretty as someone else. Stop comparing, and just, be who you are. Theres beauty in all of us. You just have to remember to embrace it.
