The New Me

by Paul Gondwe   Mar 31, 2012


Dreams do come true,
i say to myself after having
witnessed my future me
collide with the present me,
creating the new me

I longed for change,
for a new beginning
to a life i despised
despite living it daily

I suffered alone inside
closed doors,
with evil thoughts penetrating
my mind, sprouting inside
my brain and what was i to do?

With faith like that of
a mustard seed,
i rose and moved the mountain,
conquering, creating the new me

    This is rocking good

    "Dreams do come true,

    this is a gr8 way to start the poem love it
    "witnessed my future me"
    i suggest it to be changed to
    "witnessed the future me"
    cause my future me doesn't make any sense or maybe its just me
    i love how u said that u combined your future self that u saw some how with your present self to create a new and mostly better you

    "I longed for change,
    for a new beginning
    to a life i despised
    despite living it daily"

    well we all want to change
    but the change u mentioned here was some different as it was life u already had but u don't like
    that seems so strange and sounds like u are depressed a lot

    "I suffered alone inside
    closed doors,
    with evil thoughts penetrating
    my mind, sprouting inside
    my brain and what was i to do?"

    now you are hopeless don't know what to do feeling powerless and unable to change a thing and feeling you are small being woooow this is amazing i love the mid of this poem its gr8

    "With faith like that of
    a mustard seed,
    i rose and moved the mountain,
    conquering, creating the new me"

    now u got your hope back u moved on and made the change u longed for
    totally amazing ending
    and amazing poem
    enjoyed reading this alot 5/5 keep writing =)
