Once I was 7 years old
Rocking myself to sleep, crying in a corner.
Dreaming of a better life
For when I was older
Once I was 7 years old
Hard-headed and not listening
Ducking when she would swing
Only relaxing when she was missing
Once I was 11 years old
A beautiful flower
In a world of bitter cold
To pretty for my own good
Once I was 11 years old
But I looked much older
Basking in the light
Comes with such a heavy burden to shoulder
Once I was 20 years old
Hoping to live the better life
I dreamed of when I was younger
Finding out life is so much harder
Than the soft edges of a knife
Once I was 20 years old
Living in the night
Plagued by demons
Still dreaming
Everything will turn out right
Soon I'll be 30 years old
I hope my restless soul
Finds some peace by then
Still working towards my goal
Of living a better life than its been
Soon I'll be 30 years old
Will my soul find peace
Or will I have the fight
To achieve my goal
Will I ever be 30 years old?
Once I was 7 years old
Rocking myself to sleep, crying in a corner
Once I was 7 years old
This is an unedited blog about my thoughts, my life, and my experiences living it. I leave it unedited so I can actually watch myself grow. It forces me to acknowledge my mistakes and learn from them. Feel free to leave comments
