" PEACE. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart."- unknown

I hate how my life
Turned out to be
I hate being home
I just wanna be free
I wanna run
Run so far away
As if that'd really make
Everything okay
When deep down
I know it still won't be
Cos my lifes not the problem
The problem is me.

Well earlier today I felt trapped. I felt like I was being pulled back and stopped from having fun every so often by my mom or even my friends, all I did was blame blame blame everyone but me and I said my life was unfair, but after I wrote this I realized you can't just wait for your life to get better or for the world to change, you have to do something about it
