I Have Been Right Here

I have been right here. With blemishes and flaws, Without one excuse to make. I have been right here to accept, And chase my own obstacles away. With a facing of fear and suspected threats. I have been right here to confess, Steps I have made to admit mistakes. I have been right here to allow myself, To endure whatever it took for me to see... What it was I had not done, To better the living of my life. I have been right here to know, What it feels like to be despised AND loved. I have been right here to realize unhappiness too. But I refuse to continue, To have my good intentions be abused... By anyone confused by who it is I am, As I have been here to know to have no doubts.
