I search my soul and what do I find,
I hear words of my sub-conscious that are very unkind.
I try so hard to zone it out,
But, It holds truth that it wants to shout.
My soul search is a new start for me,
This heartless creature can no longer be.
Playing games and breaking a heart,
I deserve more make a fresh start.
So who is this person I want to be?
Kind and caring my soul wants to be free.
Free from anger, lies and hate.
I decide my own path, I decide my own fate.
I want to wake up and be in a happy place.
Not full of dread, despise or pull a hateful face.
I want the people I love the most to know how I feel
I is very important to me, a really big deal.
I don't want this anger to eat me alive,
I want courage, happiness, and drive.
To accomplish the impossible, to seize the day.
Life is too short in every way.
As my soul search comes to an end,
I am free to move on, free to mend.

Blushing black
A desperate chameleon under attack
No breath gives me air
Soul searching I try myself
With family and friends,
having a young life of thrills,
Living life without a care.
Till one day I grew up,
Realizing I had
