My emotions always get the best of me
but this time
I am scared and I have no one to turn to
so I run
I have been running away from the future
that I want because I am scared
I am scared of being defeated
because I already am defeated
I feel like I am not good enough
there for I am not trying to be better
I know this road is ending
and I need to embrace what comes next
but I am not making moves to start a new chapter.
I have been dreaming
but my life has not caught up to reality.
I am sick of being scared
I need guidance
but my pride wouldn't let me ask for it.
I am sick of feeling weak
feeling hopeless
this is my future
I refuse to let it past me by
But how do I stand up to it
ALONE?

Your only a child once they say, live it as best you can. People come and people go , soon you'll have to understand .. promises may be broken and dreams can come undone.But witheach day you'll grow and grow and learn not to run. For no matter what road you choose pain will tag along.But one day you'll stop and realize you've found where you belong.
Open your eyes and take a look ..
this place you've landed at , came when you searched and opened another book .
just like this one, theres many more
so crawl, walk, run , jump , fly ... EXPLORE
noone ever got anywhere putting their head down and looking sore
they took the punches, the kicks, the screams and the yells ...
they let out the tears , and false hopes
but just like a little girl in the playground they jumped over that rope
so can you
all it takes is self-confidence and a head held high .. not a friend, not a man , not even a teddy bear
it takes running from fear and facing strength
you can do it , you've already come great lengths
This poem is actually about my future. My school work and career goals... and how to find the courage to do things that are new. How to stand alone with it and still feel strong
