Good Enough For Me

Published by Family Friend Poems December 2008 with permission of the Author.

Born a self hatin' little girl with a soul so pure
Beautiful and smart-- so young, yet mature
Talented with words, but the world doesn't see
That this is the only way that I know how to be me
Broken and beaten by this world that I despise
I've learned to block it all out, I no longer open my eyes
They've been permanently shut, so now I live through what I feel
But I've cut off all emotions so life's no big deal
I'll be great one day, that's what I tell myself
I'll be great one day without any of their help
I'll be great one day and then they'll see
I'll be great one day-- And good enough for me

The more time you spend distant from people whether physically or just emotionally the more difficult it is to consider a change of thought...
You are going to have a lot of time to be introspective. Decide who you want to be and make it happen. Procrastination is just a state of denial, trying to convince yourself you actually wanted to do whatever it may have been.
