Change

April 14, 2013

I did some thinking today,
I'm tired of the world being so gray.
This time every word I say is true,
I wanna change for you.
I hate some of the things I do,
And I wondered why my life was blue.
The blood on sleeve came through,
The stains on my shirt did too.
I think I finally have a clue,
How to change for you.
The addiction was screaming inside my head,
And I did everything that it said.
I know now what to do instead,
Not to stay inside my head.
I made some choices that where wrong,
But I know you will keep me safe and strong.
And I know you wont stay here long,
If I hang on to the trusty bong.
I did some thinking today,
I want you to be here to stay.
I am really glad I met you,
You helped me see what I need to do,
I wanna change for you...


The author's comments:
I wrote this after I did some serious reflecting about my life. I was getting into a sad and depressed state like I use to. I was going back or my old ideas. I had a sudden epiphany, and things honestly started to make since. Life is what I make it, if I perceive everything negatively my life will slowly become negative; just like my attitude. I use to always say I want to change, but I never took the steps to do it. Finally, I truly do, and I am going to take action this time!
