A Place to Grow
Solitude is a one man show
The one so personal
Only you'll know
Whether it's a blessing or a curse in all
You must learn to love the empty space
Take your time it's not a race
Learn to love yourself and the pace
Let yourself feel and embrace
You find yourself a Jester to your own game
Abandonment, Disgrace, Destructive
Branded to your own name
Learn to grow from what they can give
Letting these thoughts rule who you are
Brings out a you that feels so far
Hiding behind a painted mask
With a smile that doesn't last
Yet you are able to recognize
That these feelings are a bed of lies
Where the bad one stays
and the good one dies
Self-Reflection is how you grow
Learn to see the bad
and you'll definitely know
There's plenty of room for greatness to be had
Just know I'll always be here
To push you
To pull you
In the right direction dear
So have patience in me
and I'll have patience in you
I just can't wait
To see what you do
For you.
