I turn off the light to see the candle burn in my room, thus the flame entices me to wonder about pain. How can you say you care for me, but leave my alone like a Lame? I can prosper on my own, I can achieve success, but I hate the fact of knowing that I'm by myself… I easily laugh through my sorrow, because I bring happiness to others to front my feelings but, "the man behind the glasses" just wants to sleep, rest, give up, die, but I wont let this screwed up world win and have me subside, nawh, I'm not about that life. I'll make a difference in this world, minor or major, I do not care! I'll smile everywhere, and forever will I express my feelings on sheets of paper. I don't need a listening ear, but yet i do want a life with someone and hear wedding bells. I know She'll be my other half; strong, bold, and different like me. We'll fight and cry, but always end up sleeping together side by side, Ignorance is bliss, yeah we hear it daily, but the ones who claim that statement really irritate me, because individuals like yourself, make me vomit. Judging others because their life is better than yours. Look in the mirror before you talk, view your own path once more. I challenge your heart to rest, so it no longer will be sore.
