stripped

Contributed by desire on Sunday, 4th June 2006 @ 07:26:16 PM in AEST
Topic: hbadday



Stripped down to nothing but my bare soul,
Somewhere along the way I lost control.
Of everything that I thought I had known,
I look around and everythings gone.
My hope and dreams that I kept alive,
Now Seem barely able to survive.
The strong woman that I had come to be,
Is now but a showdow of the real me.
and all that I kept alive in my heart,
Seems to be slowly starting to depart.
The discipline that I stood firm about,
Has now turned to self doubt
The dreams that I was reaching for now seem far away,
The Chaos of my life seems to be carrying me away.
Like a whirlwind, I seem to be going around an around,
praying for the old me to some how touch ground.
and find the focus that i once had,
and remember my strength, and no dwell on whats gone bad.
but some times life brings things, i feel i cant endure,
things that make me irrational an unsure.
when everything falls apart,
its hard not to lose heart.
it makes me feel like a failure, and that shouldnt be,
why have lost so much faith in me.
i can give a million reasons why,
but the reality is i give up when i should try.
instead of proving to myself that i can do anything,
and keep my head up, no matter what the outcome may bring.
i shall stop feeling sorry for myself ,
and place the words" cant" and" failure" on a shelf.
and be more positive, about who i am, and where i want to be,
an let GOD guide me to my desitney.
i will stop trying to do it all alone,
and keep pressing forward if it goes wrong.
life is full of lessons that we all must learn,
and each one of us in our own time has our turn.
some get through it and find their way,
some are still trying to understand, what GOD is tryin to say.
today was another day and another trial for me,
and i learned that nothing comes of self-pity.
and although IM up i may fall again but its OK,
because i learned my lesson for the day.

i will leave you with something that that someone once told me
you cant see your blessings if your watching someone else's
no matter how much or how little you have be thankful
Because someone somewhere is wishing that had what you have....
