STANDING

by neo   Feb 26, 2008


Weak as these knees feel. being stepped on, tossed aside for too long.
What went so very wrong?
maybe it takes the one you would never betray to turn on you.
once again I am going to pick up the pieces of what remains of this life. just like a puzzle, each one must connect
In my heart, in my mind, I did nothing wrong. I give up explaining & proving other's wrong
what I have done in the past really made me the person I am.
STANDING
It's just so hard, but I must do it. Not for anyone but me
I am my worst critic
For so much time has passed. where was I? Loving and living for another. where did I go
STANDING
looking all around me. the things I see are soon to be no more
I am no toy. I am no slave. Before I become one of these, PUT ME IN A GRAVE
I have such a journey. I can not & will not be loved. Now I must live. Live as if at any moment I will die
for all the silly drama, comments, names, every possible thing i have been referred to as. NO MORE
I will push, shove, stomp on graves. It's just me now. This is my life that I must save
YOU LEFT ME. No, you don't care. These are my own scars. You will live. live long. live well
No ill will to wards you. I know what blank is. I know what it feels like to be unloved.
STANDING
You are not required to love me. I am very much aware of this
I will not die over you. I will hurt for a bit. But at this age, it's not really new. Now is it?
Just know that I WILL get what I want, and I carry on like no other.
The pain you gave me is now being turned into a strength
For you, I would have went to such great lengths.
STANDING
Yes, for a bit I will need to lean on the wall
After loving, loss, loving again, beaten by the world. No family, ALONE
I WILL STAND SO TALL. and when u see this strength. It's on the ground in front of me that you shall FALL

I am not loved, trusted, wanted. No family will claim me. I am ME.
NO FAMILY, NO NAME, NO LEGACY
NO ONE CAN CHOSE TO BE BORN. BUT WE CAN TRANSFORM
