What are you waiting for?

Get on with it already

GO!

Live your life
the way
YOU
want to live it

How I wish I wasn't such a horrible person
That pretends not to be so that
he may mingle with the rest of the humans

How I wish i was a natural, a prodigy, at something
anything really

so that I could at last give my spirit
the recognition it
seems to feel it deserves

How I wish I would stop pushing all
of my lovers away

one by one

they all vanish
Like driftwood
into the depth that is
the enormous ocean that my empty heart

has become

How I wish that she loved me
how I wish I could love my family like many, many do
how I wish I wasn't me

Bigger than a mountain
this magic runs though me
It swallows and collides
it makes my fears run and hide

No, no

there it begins anew
I'm off to satisfy it
I hope this hunger I never lose

caressing my hair

It's so hard

to tell you I love you

because the truth is

I actually do and always will

They will, ultimately, be
the source of your inner strength and character

There is nothing more empowering in the universe
than rejection

It brings you so much closer to the truth
than you might think
Ocho the Owl Jun 2014
You are your own worst enemy

It is through

inner strength

that this changes
