Just Me

I came out in the real world To reunite with my soul I once had but lost To reach out and feel your world Of which I was once part of those you loved most I came out in the open To remind you of my past A past I never wanted to happen A past I never wanted to last It is easier to forgive than to forget Or cease repining from my visceral offense But it is never my personal end not to regret Hurting the hearts of my believers and friends condensed By now I am like a flower defoliating And have aged because of the past But I'm still here standing and contemplating After long years of silence, being an unbearable outcast My words are not enough to make up But the one good person you once knew is still inside of me It is with honesty and sincerity that I showed up Came back and still have a good grip of my real me... just me!
