Break these chains of misery that have become apart of me, I can no longer bare the sight of my own self defeat.
I wish not to be a slave due to insecurity, for I am blossoming in manners that are not always certain or true to the average eye.
I desire the most to live by the standards of what I call self-fulfillment. Quick to disappoint but rather needed to become open minded about the actuality of a versatile yet conformative world.
Tell me this doesn't hurt and I will not believe such a lie for it is pain experienced by the weight of these chains that cause your deepest thoughts of self regret and neglect.
So for once, I attempt to look past my self doubt only to be met by a familiar taste of failure.
Experiencing a never ending cycle of uncertainty, I see the light of your guidance and I am told "you are beautiful, you are strong, you are broken... because you are human."
