DARK SHADOWS AND BRILLIANT HIGHLIGHTS- CHAPTER I: ONESELF

DARK SHADOWS AND BRILLIANT HIGHLIGHTS- CHAPTER I: ONESELF

A Poem by Js.

Life didn’t go as I planned,
Most of the time.
After so many errands,
I’m thrown into the unknown.
That’s what happens when I’m convinced that I finally have myself all figured out,
I get sucked into yet another doubt, another mistake that’s supposed to teach me something
but as always, I don’t quite get it.
I don’t get me.
I don’t get what goes on around me.
don’t see a reason for any of it, and I've tried to,
I always do.

It was the first time I felt happy.
Good about where I was standing.
I didn’t need anything or anyone to keep me satisfied with who I was.
Thought I reached a point in my life
Where I could finally lead myself to the right path,
Maybe not the best one, but it was good enough for me,
At least, it seemed good....

Whatever happened to that self sufficiency...
