obscured vision

yea yea not my best yada yada, but there it is

staring out the window
but not looking at whats there
im seeing my reflection
shrouded by the dark, empty room
reflecting on who it is I am
rejecting everything that is a part of me
tearing myself to pieces
analyzing bit by bit as I go
embracing myself for who I am
realizing that this is what makes me, Me
glimpsing the truth of what I am

all as i stare out this window
at the absolute nothing that I see
which is only me

“A single choice can build destinies,or destroy them.”

I know Im not perfect but I can smile
& I hope that you c this heart behind my tired eyes

Awwww this was really sad. The ending is when you finally notice exactly what yer talking about. Kind of a surprise, if you ask me. I really liked this one Tiff.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Nice, I liked it... Dont critize yourself, for a have heard that each one of us is different, and that is what makes each one of us special. and this writing is very special.
