Poetry: The real me

by Rayneonfire

Created on: May 29, 2011

I am so that you will be

I am your voice of reason, a voice of truth that is misguided

By your own doubts, your fears and your thunders

I am on the way side, when all you ever wanted was to be real


I am the one that takes away all that you ever wanted

And then some

All that you have dreamed of and turned into a mess

Do not detest this verdict; for you, yourself have put you there


I am your challenge, your misdirection

When all you ever wanted was a map to the Why?

You look towards the sky for some form of dignity

When in fact; you sold that down the road, when it suited you


I am your faith, in which you said would never waiver

Yet, when my eyes are closed, you take the high road claiming innocence

You try to avoid what life actually has acquired you

In this line of reasoning, there are no chances of going back; not now


I am you; who wishes for a better day

A better way to live your life

A better way to cry without showing who you really are

A person who seeks out justice and the all American way


I am YOU... I am your brother, your sister, your Mother

I am who you always wanted to be yet, didn't know how to be you

I am the one who is there, when you don't even know who you are anymore

Through life there are better days and in hopes that days get better


I am self doubt filled with rage

A raging war inside your head

You now have the chance for a rebuttal

I am the muted voice that will always give you trouble


So be yourself, don't try to be anybody else

Love the way you only know how to love

Forgive and forget, yourself and others

Love who you are and whom you love


It's all up to you... so what are you waiting for...

Get going and just love, live and seek out happiness

Be the person you always wanted to be.... alive & free..

And finally the chance to be okay to finally be just me...
