Stick around and watch me fade
These words I rhyme only detest
Who I am I cannot rest
I thought i could put away the past
Yet still in this race I come in last
Holding onto a casting dream
A falsity that does not gleam
Only a shadow on the wall
I went down hard on the fall
Careful now 'cuz I'm so weak
Stare me down, call me a freak
Now I don't care 'cuz you're not real
You can't tell me how to feel [comments] => 2 [counter] => 188 [topic] => 48 [informant] => blue_angel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

okay, lots to say about this one. first, i do not have the ability to tell you how to feel. i can care and advise and encourage, but that's all i can do from this side of the keyboard. ppl like kc can do more and it is my hope that she can and will. i know some of what you have been through and it is hard to leave behind, esp. when something bad happens like it is now. i do not think that anything recent, like your mellowness, was a charade. you are a sweet kid. a sweet kid that has been tortured in life, yes, and one i suspect may feel bad about feeling good (and maybe i'm wrong???). freak? no way. me not real? possibly, lol. i've been called worse.
i think it is good to cut the strings and be your own person. don't try and impress others, rather impress yourself. you have to live with the consequences, good and bad, for the decisions you make. if they are not the right choices, than yes, obviously make change and do what you have to do. if that means being honest with yourself and embracing sadness, well, you may have to do that. i would hope that wasn't the case, but i am not you. i hope you come through this with a better appreciation of who you are, because i still see an angel.
