They keep telling me how proud they are of me and sometimes I wish I could be as proud, It just feels like I'm lost in a crowd; of endless faces. There are days when I feel like nothing or no one could hurt me again, Then later I break down and feel the pain; of leaving them all behind. Sometimes they tell me it will be alright, But sometimes I don't believe them but I won't give up without a fight. Growing up was hell but somehow I survived, and to my own disbelief I'm still alive. The constant writing and rhymes keep me sane, but sometimes I wish I was on a plane; taking me back to my hicktown. Maybe it's because I'm living a normal life without all of the yelling and constant mistakes, maybe life is giving me a break. Sometimes I wish I never had to go through it all, but sometimes to get back up all you have to do is fall.

Sometimes

This was when I moved abroad for a while...
