Dry Positivity.

June 20, 2011

You can't always say, "think good thoughts."
It worked for awhile,
but if you're like me,
you'll eventually run out of positivity.

Can I call myself an optimist,
if I say, "Things can't get any worse" ?
Because I'm not sure if it works quite like that.

It's strange how all I hear is
"I'm fed up"
"Shut up"
"Break-up"
or even "Stuck-up"
but every time I hear it,
it's as if my chances of healing go anywhere but that direction.

The author's comments:
Let's just say that I came from a place in my life that presented me with a lot of hardship and negativity. This is one of the many poems I wrote to help me get to a better place within myself.
