I am defined By the blood And tears I've shed, I was formed By the pieces That were put together, I am not whole Not who I was Not what I want But what I got, I was made Not made from clay And a hand, But from flesh And a knife Who I am isn't due to love Who I am was caused by fear But that doesn't make me less It makes me more, I should remember that I came from pain And have made it far.

Me by definition
I am defined By the blood And tears I've shed, I was formed By the pieces That were put together, I am not whole Not who I was Not what I want But what I got, I was made Not made from clay And a hand, But from flesh And a knife Who I am isn't due to love Who I am was caused by fear But that doesn't make me less It makes me more, I should remember that I came from pain And have made it far.
I've been hard on myself. Thinking about what I'm not and what I should be rather then what I am and what I have done. I have been forgetting all I have accomplished and that I have done so much and it's been making me feel hopeless of doing anything meaningful;
