I WALK ALONE

July 26, 2012

I'm tired of walking these long miles.


Not knowing where my destination will be


having to fight like a barbarian and act like one too,


having to slip through and under mossy trees disguise myself as a thief


and try to act like I'm happy.somebody Please tap me or slap me to wake me up from this nightmare.


Only if I was in a nightmare, that would be a crucial choice.Do I have too act like I'm an animal.


Do I have to be something I'm not, just to fit in to society.I don't care if I'm an outsider.


I don't care if I have to take a shower in the water falls.If running away from this destruction is


going to help me find myself. Then I shall run.I shall run in through the dark and dawn


to find the heart that I know is beating in me.To find my wisdom and courage.To find out who is this boy


that's walking alone.I don't know where fate may take me.I can't decide where or what I want to be


when I'm finished with my journey.As long as I find who I am, that’s all that matter.And walking alone


may be difficult. But it's surely worth it.

I use to fill alienated and had low self esteem.And having that burden on you everyday.Made life difficult.But I then realize that I wasn't me
