From Myself to I

Something I've been needing to do for a while. To see the good inside of me, instead of only the failure.

When I look in my eyes

I see the sadness

Look a little deeper

Way beyond the madness

All my joy lives there

My love and hope

Shackled 

Tied down there

Even in my dreams

I punish myself

I make myself suffer

For what reason

I've never been arrested

Never cheated on someone

Hell

The worst I've probably done is stole a piece of gum

When will I realize

There is something to these glazed eyes

Something to love

Not something that must die

Even though my family doesn't care

That doesn't mean that everyone hates you

Doesn't mean everyone will only degrade you

Maybe someday you'll see a silver lining

Quit thinking about the timing

Focus on the grinding

In the end, its only you causing all this self blinding

For every breath

You refuse to take two

No matter how I act

I can't make someone love you

Get it together

Keep it that way

Someone else will come along

Make it a good day

People may come and go

But its me I have to live with

Stop torturing yourself

Say, "F**k Them," and forget it!
