Thoughts

As many a day
when all obstacles are thrown my way
I awake to bitter sweet reality
where im so happy and yet so sad
so withdrawn and yet so social
so confident and insecure
so real and yet so uncertain
my friends they circulate aroun me
i make there day
but sumtimes it feels that i should not live this day
i want life
sometimes wanting to end it
i feel accomplished and smart
but know my mind has ended
i cease to give up
but i constantly never try
i always laugh and smile
but inside i cry
im so nice
but im a dog that lies
i want so much
and yet deserve so little
nuthing is enough
and i have plenty
then i tell myself
i am me and
i am merry
i think too much
but i admit plenty
i release
all my problems
and that takes courage
so others
will rise and follow.
