Untitled (written 01/01/10)

I find myself looking for more each and every day

I need to gather myself for a while, I need to fly away

When I think about it longer, I think I need to stay

So tired of trying to fight myself, I will change today

I will stand strong against the evils that often slice through my soul

I will mount up on the stallions, wearing spurs and boots of gold

This attitude must get me through the blackness compatible with coal

I must be wise and powerful, as a man in the age of old

There is only one thing that can help me, and I realize it isn’t me

I am sick and tired of the person I used to try to be

I need to branch out and meet expectations, as a sweet fruit-bearing tree

I am not this person I act like I am, I am not really me

I hate this fake person I have slowly and steadily become

I want to ignore the attitudes and feelings of the ignorant some

When I think about those ignorant some, I wonder if I am one

Wow, I am one, it has come to the point I never thought it would come

Putting this thought aside, I know what I have to do

Place my old self in the past and in the future become anew

Maybe in the future I won’t feel so down and blue

Time to spread the wings and fly place of which I never knew
