Shine Through

What are these points i write about Where does this all go Finding words to feelings is a challenge Blank pages i have gazed apon Destructive paths all carved by me A shape lost and unaware What do these eyes see through coke colored bottles Blurry and faded is thee past Present corroded by fear Take into consideration my journey thus far An excuse to not trust not open up not talk about all i wish to be So discouraged so disheartened Faced with consequences i have manifested The world my enemy society my dagger But does that knife need to cut so deep Do i need to move forward with all this regret When life has blessed me with all i need To be rich they say you need to be a millionaire But a million regrets always adds up to one cent The sense that you can find true happiness with what you have now You see the sky may not always be blue But you can always let your sun shine. Shine through Even on the darkest days there is always light you just need to see it for yourself And that my friends is what this man before you is trying to do See past my darkness to a light that always shines bright for me in some way shape or form.
