#provingmyself
I know that I need to prove myself
I know my experience is dwarfed by the height of some around me
but
I also know that wisdom dwells within me
and that I am not a "typical" twenty-five-year-old.
They hired me. They saw potential in me to accomplish great things.
I need them to trust the spark of potential they saw when they hired me
and
support me in fullness as I prove myself
to them
and to everybody else.
I need them to believe that I can accomplish
what I will accomplish
and for them to challenge me to take on things
they know I can do
and support me when I take on challenges
even when they think I will fail
being ready to encourage me to continue
even if I do fail
knowing that within me is the ability, the talent, the desire
to do what it is I need to do in this life
and supporting the person that I am
by supporting what I am called to do.

I want to be a good writer,
I'v practiced time and time again, but the thing is
writing isn't like math or science
you can't just copy solutions to the same problems
over again,
it has to be original.
Something never seen before, something that makes
the crowd hold their breath,
something that makes you think
maybe theres more.
Putting feelings into words
to try and make a difference in at least someones life
but constantly doubting that anyone will care,
Always trying to help someone else
because you cant help yourself
and hoping that someone will help you
but knowing no one can,
trying your hardest to love others
when you can't even love yourself,
constantly thinking what others think
because your own opinion doesn't matter to you
but hope one day it will matter to someone else,
trying to prove you're strong
when all you think of yourself is weak and sad
and all those other names people put in your head,
you put in your head,
writing is not about proving people wrong,
its about proving yourself wrong.
