I can't tell you how I feel Cause I don't even know, So I'll Just put on a happy face If only just for show. I don't see why it matters You've never liked the truth, I see a sigh under that smile You're fighting nail and tooth. You can't do this forever Someday you'll have to loose, Please, just let me be myself It's my time to choose. I know that you won't understand So i don't even try, So,for now, I'll wear this mask While inside my heart dies. "you can't gain anything , until you lose something" |

Ashlee, Boy! Do I understand this one! Well written - I wonder if you let your Dad read this one. This poem would have really helped me back when I lived with my father. Thank you for sharing. Alison |

He got to read it- he just didn't really care. He has this superficial view as to what I'm supposed to be and I'm the exact oposite... I'm an Army brat though, I assume his views on what a person should be is based on that... I'm glad you liked it! "you can't gain anything , until you lose something" |
