'' For every dark night there is an even brighter day"








-Tupac Shukar


I smile and say
i'm happy,but my
eyes say otherwise.

Inside I feel like
i'm just trapped in
a room slowly dying,
and there is no way out.

Sometimes no matter where
i am i feel like i'm drowning
but everyone else is breathing.
I try to swim to the top, but
there is no top.

I'm to sad to smile, but yet
i'm to hurt to cry.

I walk around everyday wondering why, why is this happening
to me, i just feel completely
depressed and there is nobody
around to bring me to my best.

my soul used to be a room
filled with happiness and joy,
but now it's empty and its only
possession is depression.

This is about how for a while i just felt like i didn't really fit in at school and nobody really liked me.

But only another birth"

I'm Whatever You Want Me To Be - My Quote -

This makes me think about me when i was younger.   I was kinda a troubled kis in school, always got blamed even though  it wasn't my fault.               I liked the words you used.                   Good Work.               Keep Writing.
