[bodytext] => So what now? When we fall and trip in front of the ones who watch and wait for mistakes to be made. Who wants sympathy from people who couldn't care less? I can't get past this, it's like no matter how hard I try I'm not good enough. It's the impossible goals that keep us growing. My thoughts get caught in my head and my words get smothered by my insecurities. I know who I am and why I'm here. But even with purpose I can't figure out this old man trapped inside of this boy's heart even though I know why it beats. We all fight our own battles and struggle in this war we call life. When I look in the mirror I see a promising future obstructed by my present failures. I wish I could get this out. Have you ever had a passion you couldn't tame and a thought you wanted to put in words? I don't want it to go away just to get it out in hopes it will never leave but that someone will be encouraged. Why do I feel it's never enough? My frustration begins with the struggle between my words and my thoughts in the foggy battlefield of my mind. My own will and my choices are not the same. And so what now? I press on because I am forgiven and I am not perfect. I will not be moved by this world but It will effect me.
