    My Future

    There was a time I couldn't see myself with a future, was spending to much time living in my past, allowing myself to get caught up in a persons opinion of me, who I should be, how I should look, how I should act loving others so hard who never returned the love back.

    My self-image shattered the essence of me lost, living life in limbo trying to answer the unanswered questions, wondering if there was a purpose to my life besides living in this deep dark existence.

    I looked deep inside of myself and realized I had to make a change, no more letting anyone rob me of my joy, no more living day to day in pain. My past is a reflection of the person I was, but my strength through endurance has allowed me to see the great person I will become.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
