I've been away
or I guess not really
But I've been thinking
About who I am lately.
I've had the time to think me through
Go over every vessel
over every nerve cell
Everything that makes up me
I dug around in my brain
To figure out how I ticked
How I worked
Nothing I did
could have prepared me
For what was in store
I saw myself
truly saw myself
I started to cry.
I'm not the person I always thought I was
yes I'm annoying and childish
immature and "rude"
But there is so much more to me.
I have power held up inside me
With the tip of my pen
paper and below it
I have the power to help.
Not just with my jokes
and stupid scenarios
But with my words of poetry
Someone Once told me
that I changed her life
with just 2 verses
that because of me
She's still here
So I will take off my court jester hat
and take up my pen
grab a fresh white sheet of paper
I will put myself to work
This is my revelation
This is the real me
I wont hold back anymore.
**I will let my words flow free
"I'm sorry. You don't deserve this. You are such a special, beautiful, smart and creative girl. Bad things happen to good people too often. You changed my life with just 2 verses.
If you ever need ANYTHING I am here for you. I owe you so much. When sadness gets the best of you think of all the lives you've touched and changed. And think how many are still there for you to help. "
A ******* Here (THENAY CORA) told me this yesterday. When I saw it today I sat there and stared at her words and started to cry. She opened up a door in me that I never even knew existed.
