[hometext] => Hey!
This is my first post on this website, and I thought I would put my best work first. I hope you all like it. It describes how I feel about myself and I can not seem to rely on anyone because in the end they cant do anything to make me feel complete. Thanks. Linny [bodytext] => “Everything I Am” I’m not one to wonder if my shoes are on the right feet. Just as long as I’m standing, I’m okay. And I wonder what you think of when you look at me. Would I feel better if I knew what you know Or would I be better off without you. I can’t bare to see myself in the eyes of someone else. For fear that what I see will turn myself against me. I hold myself up in front of a mirror to the world, A mirror that will shatter and break when it sees the life I face. And I cant help but wish to be someone else. I cant turn around and pretend That I am who I want to be, because in the end, I hide everything from you, Everything I am I know I can turn to you, But that’s not the road I want to take. My secrets despise the truth it seeks, And I know that no matter what, All the things inside of me, Are too much for you to handle. Maybe I am better off without you I can face the demons by myself. I wont drag along behind you But I will tie my own shoes on my own two feet. And I cant help but wish to be someone else. I cant turn around and pretend That I am who I want to be, because in the end, I hide everything from you, Everything I am [comments] => 2 [counter] => 158 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Linny [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
