I apologize for my thoughts
I know my words may seem a little lost
But when i found them beneath my heart-it was dark
And i was waiting for that fire to start but there was no spark
I couldn’t find my way out
I kept finding myself being followed by this grey cloud and a path of sorrows that belonged to me
I longed for that door that lead me to tomorrow i wanted to be free
Be free from my mind be free from the me that i was not tryna be
If only you could see, if only you could see what i see visually
I meant for these words to be recited mentally but my mental is not correct you see, I lost me..
I don’t know who i am or who i wanna be
I wish i was Dorothy…
I’ve been following this path of success but this path just lead me to much less
I failed the test
Im caught in a drift
Mind boggling, eyes crossing
Trying to find a better place
Tossing and turning
Refusing to look face to face with the girl that i’m afraid of
The girl that im ashamed of
Im afraid of what they think
That they’ll think she’s not pretty
She’s not worth anyone’s love
But im more afraid that i’ll agree…
Im afraid because she’s me
Written by
the understatement
