Shahana Jackson Poet I do not know?

Change

I feel like for so long things have been rocky and shaky so now that i'm stable and 
standing on the ground I can't help but want an earthquake. I need something to change, I 
am constantly walking in the same pace in life and I want something drastic to happen 
whether it causes me pain or someone else. I need room to breath, I hate being suffocated 
into one little bubble. I'm not supposed to always float on and float on with the same 
kinds of people, but it makes me worry sometimes where I should be? Should I stick to the 
old or remove and make a new day. Change must come and I know it may sound stupid for me 
to suddenly want to rock my world but life is too short to just sit and settle. Don't I 
deserve the best, I want to be treated to chapagne and cavier. It's time for me to take 
the test and do what I need to do change is ineviatable and I can't keep pacing in the 
same steps or I might just run off a roof. I need this, I deserve this. All the tears I 
cried, I don't even want to reminise. I just close my eyes and hope the answer is good. 
If not and it's really painful just let someone be there to catch me when I fall down.

Janetta Harrington August 25, 2008 at 1:28 AM a cry from the depth of your heart. i was like that. one year so many things had happened, i shut my door, broke relations off with people that were toxic and rose like a phoneix a year later. i found i never missed the ones i left behind. i choose myself to be my best friend and i also chose to be happy.
