have my back

My brain's headed right 

But my feet pointing left

My dreams and goals got lost

Hand me a f*****g GPS

I don't know what I want

I don't know how to get there

And nobody wants to help

I've looked everywhere

Please excuse my french

But this is pissing me off

I don't like being confused

I son't like being lost

I need someone to tell me 

Who I should be

But I won't let them speak 

Because I'm too in love with me

I love the fact that my life is mine

I love who I am right now

But I need to think about another time

When to get there, where and how

I really don't want to be told who I am

I really don't need to be babysat

I don't need to be told where to stand

I just want someone to have my back

you're a walking mass of contradictions here....i feel your angst but be careful with words like this or your family will think you are bipolar. i am hoping this is only a rant, it is decent prose....sounds like a rant. best to get it out in your writes, so write on!

[Annabelle Lee]

I hope I'm not bipolar but who really knows? This was just a rant, I get so tired of people anymore and It happens so fast. Thanks, Quin

oh, i feel you honey, believe me. people piss me off! i try to smile at the world but some folks are just a-holes!

I see you're confused. You dont know what you want, but remember the only person that can get you where you need to be is you. If you let someone else make those desicions for you, it'll only to longer to reach your destination.

Sounds like you 've reached the point of exasperation here....I hear you on those last two lines.

'I don't need to be told where to stand
I just want someone to have my back'

So often we don't want people solving our problems or telling us what to do, instead be there to support. Another good one Annabelle Lee.

I read this and thought about being able to make your own decisions and to have support is to truly feel supported.

Just feeling like things can't go my way. I'm always there for the people who need me but they're not always nice enough to return the favor
