Read my words they tell my story
Twists and turns, shame and glory
Living life to its fullest
Some exciting, so at its dullest

I liked my life until i lost my hero
Then i thought my life equaled zero
Life is hard through hard times
Diving deeper in pain isn't worth the climbs

Further from my friends i went
By the time i realized, my time was spent
No more knife i said
The idea of cutting was cut out of my head

Depression is something that can be helped
But it silenced me before I whelped
Talking to someone is a way
But it cannot help me today

Life is strange, life is strong
Don't hate life that is wrong
Forget the past, for you will not live it again
Time can't go back ever since the world began

Wishful thinking got me through
Deserving wealth is so not true
Live your dreams, live with passion
My dreams have nightmares,thats not my fashion

I wasn't alone, there are others
Some far away, some as close as brothers
No one lives our life, go your way
Just remember, every action you will pay

Freedom is a right, but why can't some express it
The cloth of life needs some to knit
Don't let me fall asleep
I might not wake up and i don't want you to weep

I can't wait to get away
You can come or stay i can't make you leave today
I'm off to finish my life without treason
I will live a long life, without a reason

----------------------------------------------------
Just remember that living life is its own power and having too much power is not a good life.
Living life is power, having power is not life

At first reading this it was like read your story of what happened. But then it went into a metephorical/spiritual thoughs. It sort of through me off cause i'm not use to hearing things like this come from you. Not say thats a bad thing just im not use to it. But don't worry i'll get use to it.

Honestly i can see you maturing through your work. Like your able to handle things in a mature/adult way.. srry but i'm just seeing this... its sort of new to me lol .

Great work!!!
