As I Am
I'm going to be the teacher,
and put myself to the test,
To all who knows me well....I'm not
better than all the rest. Not the
smartest..or the coolest....the
person with self-hate Even after 25
years of life...can't even get
into....the social gate.
I have self esteem issues that can't
go away,
Meeting the coolest people in the
world, but they can't seem to stay.
I always rise to the top....to find my
place in the world, with each step
that I climb...my pain starts to curl.
I do make big mistakes that I try to
fix in my life, Every-time I think i get
it...I kill it with a rusty knife. So far, I
hurt the ones who i love most of all,
they can't seem to trust me..and
that's the writing on the wall.
My feeling are so dear to me, I don't
know what to think. Sitting alone
with no support......mind and heart
can't sync. So I ask this question
....To those who live, Is it so hard for
those to Forgive?
