I'M a Champ

Why can't people let me be me?

Why do things have to be their way on their terms?

Don't say you want me knowing damn well it's a lie.

Don't try to change me because then you truely can't stand me.

I'm not your clay that you can mold.

This is the hardest thing to say but it needs to be said!

You know you want me you know you need me and for you to deny it then you are 
not just lying to me but your lying to yourself!

Through every fastball that life threw at you I was your catchers mit.

I'm your blanket when your cold. 

I am your shoulder to cry on.

I am the spring rain that falls on you cleansing you and making you feel brand 
new.

You know the way they feel about your now know how I feel about you!

Time

PAST:

being naive

trying to be in the "IN CROWD"

holding my head down low

thinking that I had all the time in the world

PRESENT:

Scared of myself

maturing 

growing

accepting that the clock is ticking and tomorrow isn't promised

FUTURE:

accepting myself for me

being comfortable in my own skin

not caring about no one but me myself and I

making up my mind

watching the clock tick its last tock

Pledge of a Teenager

Life is hard and life hurts

There are things that you have to go through to become who you are MEANT to 
be.

Life isnt always fun and life can break your spirit.

As in the wild, only the strong survive

I'm losing the fight and I really need to change because I'm tired of living like this.

I put myself into the strong category so I will be the one to survive.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I'm going to make it and everything will 
be alright.

Mistakes

I made the mistake of bring myself to your level.

I regret putting myself into this situation without looking both ways like my 
mommy taught me.

I regret not dotting all my i's and crossing all my t's.

Everytime I shed tears knowing you wasn't trippin over me.

Everytime I laid down with you and letting you hurt me because it made you 
happy.

Everytime I thought I could press rewind.

Everytime I looked too deep into the future instead of living in the here and now.

Every lie I told you because you liked when I stroked your ego.

I regret keeping that one secret from you because if you knew you'd be crushed 
beyond workds.

I regret becoming the monster that I am.

I made the mistake of putting up a front and acted like everything was fine.

I cared too soon and too hard.

Every lie I believed. 

I regret following my heart.

For being so naive.

Sometimes I regret that I'm here. He didn't want me so why did she care?

I regret that I became an ******* and ended up being everything he is and was.

I made the mistake of being what I promised myself I would never become.

I regret that no matter where we go in life you will always have a big piece of my 
heart.

I regret that I let my friends treat you like dirt behind your back and let them smile 
in your face.

I regret that I am apologizing for my mistakes

I keep making the mistake of blaming my traits on genetics.
