I Used To...

by ~â‚£ading |nspiration~   Dec 16, 2008


+I used to stay up until the wee hours of morning,
Crying my heart out for reasons that are not only stupid but childish..

+I used to lie around doing nothing but dream,
Hoping that somehow life will get better the moment I open my eyes..

+I used to be sad and down all the time around,
Leading people to believe that a smile is rare on my stoned hard face..

+I used to speak without going through my brain,
That it bugs me when I realize what a fool I've made myself of..

+I used to complain about every little thing,
To not see how lucky I am being surrounded by all those who cares..

+I used to be the girl standing at a corner,
Wishing that for once someone would turn their head around and notice..

+I used to live in a nutshell for years,
Afraid of venturing out for fear of sunlight that shines too brightly..

+I used to crave the attention of others,
For fear of being alone, for fear of being left out yet wanting to be free..

+I used to consider death as an option,
Until I start believing in miracle and the countless possibilities of life..

+I used to live a broken life of hopes and dreams,
But it will change, for the world is such a beautiful haven, if only we are willing to see..
