Only Me

My life hasn’t been perfect,
And god knows it’s been hard.
There have been times that I was scared,
And others when I was scarred.

Unfortunately I am only human,
I have made mistakes too.
But that’s all people look at,
They don’t really look at you.

At times I just wanted to give up,
Lie down & no longer fight.
I just wanted to back away slowly,
And disappear out of sight.

But what about the people who love me
What would happen to them?
How could I hurt them like that?
And be a disappointment again?

How could I leave the all sad and alone.
Asking forever ‘how & why’?
How could I hurt so bad?
And why would I want to die?

So no, I won’t give up,
I will continue to fight?
Life may be hard,
But I know what is right.

There will be people who wanna scare me,
And others will wanna hurt me.
But more than anything,
There is the people who really love me.

So for them I will continue,
I will be the best I can be.
Because in the end that’s all I really am,
I am only me!!

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • I would just read it out loud and check for some minor grammar things in it

    Other than that I really like how you stoart and becomes a little more sad and down, but then you fight your way til the end. Getting back on top is such a proud strong feeling. Wonderful job, Keep penning!!!
    Stay Strong Sarah!
