Know It's Me: Poetry

Control

The emotion that I run to's always anger,
Sadness is my enemy, to that one I'm a stranger,

I refuse to sit and mope about my problems,
I use my anger as a fuel and push my body til I solve it,

I refuse to give up, that's not an option,
I will chase my dreams until I'm laying in a coffin,

I will not buckle under the pressure,
I'll use everything I got to pick myself up off the spot,

I will not give in to any drama,
If I react a certain way it's because of my past trauma,

I cherish every lesson that I've learned,
And I never look back on the bridges that I've burned,

I'd set fire to them all if it meant peace,
And live my life out on an island with no connection to me,

But I will stop and take a breath, won't let pain control my head,
Life this weight from off my chest, and take control of what is left.

It's okay if you where hurt, it's okay to feel defeated,
It's okay for you to wonder lost, we're all searching for meaning,

It's okay to feel your worthless, it's okay to be depressed,
It's okay to not be okay, it's okay to be a mess,

Its okay to lose yourself when you are trapped inside your head,
Just know that you'll make it out, just like you always did.
