When i look into the mirror
i see a star
who's no longer gonna be afraid

When i step out of my house
i take on a mission
which is going to make me stronger
Alex May 2020
I don't know
who I am anymore
I think i was someone different once...
I had a purpose
I had a goal
but now I just feel stuck
I'm losing faith in myself
in the person, I aspire to be
losing touch with myself
and with reality
can't someone pull me back
from the ledge, I've perched upon?
remind me that the battle I fought
has already been won?
remind me that I'm not a bird
I can't just fling into the sky
remind me who I am?
exactly who am I?
who am I? I can't remember the person I used to be...

You claim that
You're
Strong

A line I heard more than once.

But.

A strong person
Need not
Tell himself
That he's strong

He simply knows that he is.

He need not to look in the mirror
And convince himself.

So.

Whatever it is you
Have in your head.

C'mon, take a seat
And.

Talk to me.
Crying and fully embracing your emotions is often seen as unmanly but in reality it's quite the opposite. It's okay to be weak, to be vulnerable.
