I Can Still Do This

There's something wrong with me, there always is And when someone pass by, I stare with envy This pain in my heart, this feeling named Jealousy When I make my move, Attention is hard to miss The gifts they gave are laughters and tease Those always please them, yet they hardly see The things they have done, results in tears and self-pity But the breaking of glass will never seize This pride I hold, that was beaten down by scars I've made it stronger and I started to build my wall Protecting myself, before they reach my core Believing in myself, ignoring the ugly calls In the end nobody can stop me from reaching the stars Broken I may be, but I can still stand tall

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
