A Boy Turned Man

The story of this life is a sad one. It describes so many losses and hurts. Its about a boy that had to be raised not knowing what he was worth. As this boy got older and life got rougher, his story started to turn. See things got harder everyday and the turmoils began to churn. So many losses, so many pains. So many tears that fell like rain. Life became unfair to him and his heart was set in stone. He believed that he was cursed for life and meant to be alone. So here's the story of a boy turned man that still suffers to this day. This boy turned man just wants to feel like things will be okay. He needs to let go of the past so he can live again. He brings his self down all the time and causes things to end. Somewhere deep inside his shell he knows what he really needs. He needs to allow himself to love. In himself he needs to believe. ALL OF THIS IS POSSIBLE. He just has to learn to let go. And he knows it won't happen over night. It's a process that will be slow. But he can do it if he tries and try is what he'll do. He wants to learn himself again. He wants to pull on through. Oh, by the way, the boy turned man, that man is actually me. I've had it rough and its been tough but still I remain free. Here's the truth of what I wish, that I could be strong and not bend. All I want is to have a story that comes with a happy end
