My Darkness

I've done things that I'm not proud of, I've seen things that scar. I have feelings inside me that sometimes I can't even control.

My chains keep me grounded, sometimes they keep me free, however because of my choices the wounds will never heal.

Sometimes I feel insane even when I look fine, but who am I that makes me feel these crushing thoughts?

The world is full of chaos, and sometimes I feel part of the crazy, yet mostly I seem settled.  

I'm not perfect, and I won't pretend to be but of course this is the reality.


What am I to do? What am I to think? Have I lost my mind? If so I know I will never lose my soul.


I hide behind my strength, yet I'm weak in so many ways. I'm a friend to anyone in need, yet I'm in need of the same.


Keeping strong takes consistency, feeling weak sometimes aren't just thoughts. I have many ways to improve, and some wounds that need to be tended to.

No matter what happens in my dreams, my ambitions are always steady. To full-fill these it will take a key, however to find it is yet to be discovered.

This world has a tendency to create circumstances that makeup things in your life, yet to what you do is the real question?

Don't think for a second that life will ever be easy, but even if it's hard always find a way to get up and keep going.
