Every day I walk down the halls
the halls of life.
Then comes a break and you must decide which way to go,
to go one way and have faith in people,
to go the other and to be a defensive being.
Yet the decisions that I face are akward,
they throw and pull me in either which way.
To be right or wrong
or to just be in utter confusion.
I dwindle into confusion quite frequently,
wondering whether to follow my heart,
or the voices squaking in my head.
Many voices talking, and screaming,
trying to dominate my life as if it is a play toy.
My life's hardly a toy,
but a simple fragile being.
One that is torn and ripped and yet mends itself together.
Fixing what others have destroyed.
But once, another stepped in with help,
gave me strength and courage to mend my wounds.
They tried to sew my precious wings back together,
and my only thanks was to be insencitive.
To use them the way noone should be used,
taking, just TAKING all that I could gain.
Then suddenly one day they were gone,
almost as if life had hidden them form view.
Now where was I?
I was alone and afraid, left to see the wrong of my ways.
Then I glimpsed them hiding in the trees,
peering out trying to remain unseen.
And in my mind I dream of how it would have been,
if I'd had the courage to be the person I should have.
I picture me as a Pixie,
being michevious sometimes,
and yet drawing people in to hurt them.
I sometimes by chance happen to be bad,
yet at other times are quite a pleasant person to be around.
The end scares me,
how will it end.
Will I still have SO many regrets........
