My Inner Me

Me to You

I look in the mirror

Reflecting at thyself.

Looking deep within.

Trying to find the light inside.

But I'm hurting inside.

All I can see are the tears, pain, and hurt.

The darkness and it's hunters lurking.

Waiting.

Waiting for the time.

When I drop.

Drop low as low as can go.

Looking for a way out of this.

Looking for the light to turn this I into bliss.

Looking for a way to get rid of all of this.

For it to dismiss.

From my very own soul.

In the mirror, I look like me.

But I'm talking to you.

If you seen what I've seen, you would see I'm so blue.

Pushing on but the facts are true.

If I had the chance to do it again, would I do it different?

Would I overcome?

Would I conquer?

Would I defeat?

Would I achieve?

Or just simply Would I?

My inner me says, to keep going despite the pain.

But when I'm talking to you I want to tell you to give up.

My inner me says, don't give up.

When I'm talking to you, I say, it's time to let it go.

It's time to go through this no more.

It's time to dig this heels in.

It's time to walk away.

It's about that time, to put on those walking boots.

Tell them all good bye and tell it to the mountain.

It's time for you to stop frowning.

It's time to stop drowning in sorrows, and getting caught in those storms.

It's time for you to change, the strange ways you see.

To flourish wonderfully as you were made.

My inner me is different than my outer me.

The soul is different from the shell.

If you looked closer with your left eye you can tell.

My inner me says, life is like a park with see saws and merry go rounds.

Swing high and stay low.

Stick with the universe and it will find your way to go.

But when I'm talking to you.

Looking at what you been through.

Live strong, live on.

Dont forget about yourself little black girl.

Tell them I am.

When people turn say Chile please.

Take my advice I know better.

Oh yes it true.

As I'm loving what was made of me.

From Me to You.
