[hometext] => One of my first poems...
[bodytext] => Life is full of choices Full of many roads to take. Many twists, many turns Try to lead you down the wrong path. But whoever you are you know the path But maybe you don’t realize it just yet. You need to learn who you really are Not the person you pretend to be. Some people don’t pretend But others do. To be the person you want to be You need to look deep down inside you. Though there may not seem to be anything there There is, you just need to really look. It made be hard at first, but you need to stop fooling yourself You need to believe the truth. You need to stop worrying what others think of you You need to do what you know is right. It doesn’t matter if something you do brings a lot of rumors, a lot of crap If it’s what you want to do then do it, no matter what others may say or do. If it’s bad then you’ll just have to figure it out for yourself, learn your own lessons Make your own mistakes. Other people need to realize That it leads you to you. I realized this too late Though I’m pretty much a hypocrite. I let too much worry me, let too much get me down Let what other people say and do bother me. But it’s nobodies business what I do I have a head on my shoulders and my own mind. No matter how blonde my hair is, or how ditzy I am I’m not stupid. I have made a few too many bad decisions, bad choices in my life But I’ve learned my lesson from all of them, though I keep making the same mistakes. Those decisions aren’t as vital as the ones I have made for the good Like saying no to drugs. These decisions were little things Yet things that seemed to control my life. No matter how trivial They led things from bad to worse. My paths have been crossed with the wrong people I’ve been friends with bad people, held relationships with bad people. But I’ve learned how to realize these things early Though sometimes I don’t see. Shadows follow me everywhere Shadows of who I used to be. That person was awesome But is also gone. I tried to get her back But I failed. The reason is simple As I said, I’m a hypocrite. I didn’t do any of the above I preached about And now it’s too late. Don’t let this happen to you Don’t put yourself through that. If I’ve learned anything, it’s that life without yourself is hard It downright sucks. Find yourself Before it’s too late.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
