If you allow yourself to learn as life grows with you
You learn that a flower starts off beautiful but dies over time,
the past should remain the past
It doesn't change over time
You can't expect everyone to love you, or think that you're great.
You need to be able too pick up all your down moments, and support your own weight.
A handshake doesn't mean a friend and an opinion doesn't mean a foe
Self respect is a key ingredient when you mix it into your *** of "new ways to grow"
Tears don't make you anyless of a man,
Fear is normal as you lay down and think to yourself at night,
It's the reality of things, it's what I have seen and experienced during this trip of life,
It is what it is, it's how you #Rise from your situations that allows you to continue to soar, that allows you to reach your destined height.
The #Rise continues this one is persona

but I don't write about you anyless.

just because a rattlesnake changes his skin; it doesnt make him anyless a rattlesnake.

I wake from a dreamless sleep, or what I
think to be dreamless
Leaves a lingering feeling of terror, doubt, or anxiety
Like my mind doesn't want to deal with the left overs
So it cuts it off midway
Amputates the whole stream of thought
Till only whisps of what could have been remains
Behind forgotten like so many things in life
So many small moments that are not recorded or erased to save space
For what we think is important
Like numbers and codes to social media that if we are honest with ourselve
Doesn't make us feel anyless alone in our
Completely individual lives
That are copied and pasted from a mold of individuality.
