Live Longer, Love Stronger, Laugh Harder


I am lost
Floating in an abyss of loneliness and sadness
My heart aches
My throat burns
My voice is stale
My mind no longer thinks of the good and righteous
It thinks of the wrong and corrupt
People say I'm weird
They fear what they don't understand
They think that a few kind words changes things
They think that a smile and a nod changes things
That the words I say reflect who I am
I hold my tongue for those who fear it
This is my only escape
This is how my spirit soars
This is my gospel
What I live by
How I feel
Let all those who fear it never read
For it is my true self
My thoughts, my feelings, who I am
This is my soaring spirit
Let it seek out those who I can't reach
Those who could understand for I am trapped
Freedom is not for people like I
For I am a force to be reckoned with
And when I am finally free
I will show the world who I am
I will find those with my passion
With my drive
But for now I am trapped
And for now I see no escape
This is my gospel
My spirit
Let it Soar

I originally wrote this when I was in a dark place of my life, when I thought nothing was going right. I even contemplated suicide but I came out the other end stronger and a better person.
