So Baffling

How can you look forward to a future looking through a horrific past.
I had to grow up alacritous.I ran before I crawled in the grass.
Fought many fights, A couple of them whooped my ass.
Every day can’t be to be strictly only stress in.
Faced many mistakes while learning my lessons.
Had to close a few doors to attend my true blessings.
It’s adamant to stay strong on my feet.
Carrying a rib caged heart that constantly skips a beat.
Gasping for understandings behind hot breath that don’t care.
I continue to embrace love regardless of emotions,fears and feelings that are so baffling to bare.
