I Found Myself

(5/28/12) I found myself all alone and not one heart had I ever known For my heart had turned to stone. I thought that everything in life I would achieve if I depended solely on me. That I would need no family or friends Because I'd reach my goal in the end. My thought was that when you depend on someone else They would always hinder you, to a point you wouldn't Know just what to do. I did not want love to kick me in the tail And then with my goals I would fail. I did not want these so called friends Who would turn their backs in the end. I used every excuse that I could find Till my heart had become cold and blind. Then I met a woman who was the same as me Ruthless, uncaring and cold, she was twenty five Years of age, and on her -life turned the page. I looked at her and what I saw -was a mirror of me Because I closed all doors. I was really turning my back on all of life And all that life could give by closing up my heart and not learning to live. I found my self questioning all my decisions That I had made, and if people hated me Then I was to blame. I knew right then that I would have to change my ways And the way that I did think, and still get everything. I asked forgiveness from family and friends And if they would support me once again. They all smiled and gave me a hug and a kiss Which was something that I had missed Now I found myself with a new outlook on life And things are now twice as nice. SMILE! Things could be so much worse.
