It's been awhile since ive done this
Even beginning on where to start is hard
For what does one say from this stupid old heart
You see
I've lived my life with little ups and more downs
And many loves I held dear
Through actions of my own, I ended up alone
broken and defeated, I'm here still standing
I've taken the hits that all came my way
And walked with me head held low
For making mistakes is a skill I've truly mastered
Ive kept quiet, I've cried, I've kept to myself
I've written my feelings here a few times to loves that I've lost. Or the ones who let go
I sit here now thinking of just what to type
As words I put down sound empty of life
I've let my heart be hardened by this fact that I am me
Clinging to the last remnants of my sanity
For i am at my limits
As I share you all with this
Regret the past, push forward to the future
Forget and remember old memories
Talk, laugh, love, cry and yell
Make your lives better than mine
Don't make the mistakes I've made
For they belong to me.
Go see the world, be it real or in a book
While you still have time
Youths of this world, please listen to reason
Times will be hard, and you will fall
How you react when it happens will be remembered through time as the day you stood tall or even became the monster
Whatever path you take will be a long journey to make
So where ever you may go, I hope you travel farther than me.
