These Things
Sometimes I think
What can I do?
Before I sink
What can I change?
Within my self
I cannot change what is true
I cannot hide the weaknesses,
in my self too
Nor can I conquer,
such self loathing
I live with such things
What can I do?
The angriness inside,
a bitter pill to swallow
You feel that there is no tomorrow
Only here and now
You tried....
and how!
You cannot try,
to hide it all
You must get by,
before you fall
Such weaknesses,
I found
Such strength ,
other things too
I cannot hide the strengths,
in my self too
They will conquer
My weaknesses...
This is true
For, true things
lie in the heart
Beating true...
I, will never fall
For, these things ...
Conquer all
