I saw you there the other day...
With that snide look on your face.

I wanted to say something but your greeting was all I could care to stomach...

I don't remember things ever being so bitter between us

I keep thinking that its me...
But I don't think I could of sliced it so nicely...

When you come from nothing
and you manage to float along
without encouragement or loving,
just basic sad songs.

You grow into something troubling,
and it doesn't take long
before you're only shrugging
when someone who used to be a friend
asks you what's wrong.

I'm only saying this because I was that something
after living without love for so long,
I was broken and struggling
and there was no proper way to get on.

Because this world owes you nothing,
not even a dad and a mom
I accepted that and gave up trusting
Maybe that's where I went wrong?

Life is difficult.
It has struggles and hardships.
People don't understand,
The pain of broken promises.
Betrayal is quite common.
No one really seems to care.
You start to realize it when you're hurt,
And no one is there.
Remember that friend that had your back?
Where is she now?
Did she hurt you really bad?
Is that where you got your dark cloud?
That dark cloud is sadness.
It's taking control of your life.
You feel there's nothing you can do.
Even if you try with all your might.
But some days are better,
They're filled with joy and hope.
Maybe someone kept their promise,
They didn't treat you like a joke.
But that's the way life is,
You fall and are told to get back up.
But sometimes you need a dark cloud,
To truly know that what you have in life is enough.

I really don't know anymore;
Life changes;
The world changes;
People change;
It's hard out here;
Being lonely;
Having no one to be with;
I truly don't know;
Why am I here?

Being sums baffling
And nothing to do
It seems only that
The bird willing to fly without wing!

Later some time one thing is cent
Try, try and try again only do
Nothing better offing , pages are closing
And for all sadness and yawning is prevalent!!

If anyone of them is audacious
Leaving the condition as it is
He does somethinthing which gives pleasure
Not to be killer of time he thinks time is precious!!!

I can no longer look in the mirror
Without seeing
Someone I don't recognize

I took a wrong turn
And this is where I end up
When can I create my own path
One for just me
Just myself and no one else
I still have a ways to go on this road
Before I find my own
But
What if I hate who I am
And I need to escape

You see,
This road of mine is ideal
I can be who I am
Yet nobody gets hurt
Not even I

I'll keep to myself,
I'm good at that
But I'll live my life at the same time

It's perfect.
Unlike me.

Sometimes
I catch him just looking at me
and my mind goes blank.
The way he looks at me
is one of the best feelings;
I feel wanted,
I feel like I'm the person that someone else
needs.
The way he holds on to me
feels like he never wants to let go
and I feel more than safe
but I can't have any of it.
I can't fall for the way he
gazes at me
and  I can't long for the way he
holds me.

Look behind you,
What you may see may disturb you.

What you once were
isn't what you are now.

It's not the physical appearance; the way you dress
Not the tone of your voice,
the change in your character –
But the difference in your demeanor

You've developed from a carefree soul
to a figure you never imagine yourself being

The lines on your face,
developed from years of hardship;
days in which you endured, prevailed
fell back down, got back up again

Weeks in which you worked day to day,
Just to make ends meet. Months in which
You struggled to keep up on your feet.

Your past self imagined the world would be cold and dark.

In every way, you see it's worth it.

Worth each waking morning.

This may not be what you wished for
When you were younger...

...It's all a part of living life.

We eat, we drink, we live, we die.
Pay our debts to survive.

We have to live through hardships,
To make it throughout life.
