Lightweight Champions

I sometimes just think to myself about all the things I should be, The things I could be but.. What's going to end up being me? I'm not sure. I'm never sure. My anxieties eat me alive but I brush them off me like they're temporary problems or lightweight champions. I think of my life.. And how its going to be, I wish and wish for better days And every wrong decision I make, I lose hope. But hopefully when I'm hoping, My hope grows and it shows. I just want what I can't have and need what I don't need. I want to be successful and love everything I do. but how? How can I... Its the question I keep stumbling upon. Lately I've been just.. faking who I am. Keeping everything in. I can't express what I am or who I am without being judged so what's the point? Atleast I can dream. About my fantasy that might be more than closer to reality than I think.

I really and truly can relate to this poem. This is an incredible write. I sometimes struggle with not doing what I want to do or being what I want to be because of the fear "what other people think." But I've learned that people are going to talk regardless. So, you're better off being who you are. Live and enjoy life while accomplishing your goals...excellent poem!!! Regards...INK-U-SCRIPT.
