It's hard to say goodbye to someone you love
it's hard to take the first step outside the four walls
where you've always been so save.

it's hard to believe in religion when everything in your goes so wrong.

it's hard to show your true emotions
it's hard to give so much when you are getting nothing
nothing at all in return.

it's hard to believe others words about how they feel about you.

it's hard to to make a commitment to no one
it's hard to hang on when everything you love is being
destroyed to a trillion pieces.

it's hard to believe in what ever you are being told
by people around you.

I understand where you are coming from. It's hard....i know....but sometimes little things in this life tend to swing your opinion in the other direction and you statr to believe for a little while. Enjoy those moments. Wonderful poem.

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

     Ahh faith.  I have a lot of faith in some people, but I'm also paranoid.  I'm always questioning people, even my gf, as much as I hate to say it.  Anyway, trust, I need to learn trust, we all should.  Without having it destroyed that is

You're right, it is hard.  But you have to have faith.  Nice job here.  Keep posting.

All of the things that you lister are very hard. Unfortunately they are a part of life that everyone is unevitably going to have to deal with. But your on th optimistic side so i think you'll be just fine conquering n e of these things...not to mention a great poem =o)

This was really good!  You mentioned so many difficult aspects to deal with and my favorite was:

it's hard to give so much when you are getting nothing
nothing at all in return.

And everything was most definitely true.  I think it all comes down to the fac that life is hard, and I'm pretty sure that's the way its supposed to do.  Overcome the problems and meet the challenges and in the end, you will be alright.  Good work.
