Asia Schmidt Poem
Consumed by secrets that bring her pain
She stares at her reflection through her glass picture frame
Her heart is filled with secrets untold
Though her secrets are causing her life to unfold
For she has suppressed what she should confess
And now her life is a terrible mess
For in secrecay you will never find rest
The moral of the story is confess, less your life be filled with stress

Asia Schmidt Poem
I step into the boxing ring and my opponent looks like Goliath
Her swings are harder than any blow I received from others
She throws a left hook of "you'll never be good enough"
Then delivers a punch of "your not smart enough"
She continues to beat me down with her blows of tormenting words
Knocking the breath out of me taking my confidence
My legs feel weak from the constant chasing her around the ring
I've knocked out many opponents before, but this Goliath always comes back for more
Her tactics are never new but she has yet to be defeated
The bell rings
I realize, I've been fighting myself

Asia Schmidt Poem
Growing up no independence
Restricted by my mom's time limit
Forced to go to school
Because they said education would be my greatest tool
"I can't wait to be an adult"
Riding that bus with all that fuss
Praying God please let them hush
Everyone making choices for me
Telling me I'm to young for some things to see
"I can't wait to be an adult"
Working all day for nabs and a bottle of coke as my pay
One of these day I'll be a millionaire I use to say
I'll do what I want and do it my way
And dare anybody to have something to say
"I can't wait to be an adult"
Now I'm a adult
My mom tried to warn me about this cult
Now I have my independence
Though my student loan debt is longer than a life sentence
"I wish I could go back to the life I use to hate"
I do what I want and do it my way
Yet people still have something to say
I have my own car
But without gas money I can only go but so far
"I wish I could go back to the life I use to hate"
No worries no bills
Just fun time filled with thrills
I'd give anything to go back to the life I use to hate
For little did I know that life was pretty great

Asia Schmidt Poem
That feeling you get when you can't change the situation
Some problems can be so big you need a miracle for what your facing
They can knock you off the path of the dreams you have been chasing
You pray for a rescuer to save you and make hasten
Breathe Through It
Some problems don't change overnight
You'll find yourself back in the same situation if you always take flight
Just because you run don't think your problems are out of sight
You can still get through it even when the situation looks tight
Breath Through It

Asia Schmidt Poem
Don't ask me what's wrong, right now I don't need help
And no I don't think I can do everything by myself
Just let me cry in peace
Don't give me your positive thinking quotes
Hoping that they will alleviate the weight I must currently tote
Just let me cry in peace
No right now I don't need to pray
Truth be told I wouldn't know what to say
Just let me cry in peace
I know that your efforts are well intended
But your desire for me to quickly get over this causes me to be quite offended
Just let me cry in peace
Grief is a process that heals with time
So please stop asking me to give you a fake "I'm doing just fine"
Just let me cry in peace

Asia Schmidt Poem
Today I came to teach you a lesson about hope
It will sustain you when you find yourself unable to cope
It will breathe life into you when you feel you can't survive
It revive childhood dreams you thought once had died
Cling to hope
When your at the end of your rope
For life will bring you many slippery slopes
Rest assured the burden will be too much for you to tote
And when it does let hope help you cope
