Scarlet Letter

Im trying so damn hard 

to change 

to be different 

im trying so damn hard

to understand 

to listen 

but no one cares to see

the changes

im trying to make in me

im trying so damn hard 

to move on from my past 

to make up for the time 

ill never be getting back 

but they won't let me 

it ends up as leverage 

to embarrass

to make them look better

to belittle 

its my own scarlet letter

I like this expression of despair. The frustration felt when efforts meet thick walls. The world often turns a blind eye to one's efforts and makes it all the more difficult for one to improve oneself. Perhaps, its a test of one's resolve and determination. Yet, whatever the outcome, one's efforts redeem one in one's own eyes. We do it for ourselves.

Its too hard to make the change,
Make it for you and not for anyone else
