The world is a maze,
A maze which doesn't stop,
For I keep running and running,
Until my heart drops.
I am in a room of darkness,
With no hope of light,
Winter keeps repeating itself,
And spring isn't in sight.
The pain within me is too much to bear,
But it's something very hard to share.
I know they won't like me,
And they will despise me,
For I will be a liar in their eyes,
And I will never rise.
I used to live in a wonderland in which,
Life was beautiful,
Fairytales were common,
And the flowers never drooped.
Little me could only see if a flower was pretty,
Never realizing how much it worked for it,
Never realizing it was tore apart,
Never realizing that it eventually fell and didn't come back.
Extra:
But I won't apologize.
I won't apologize for being me,
I won't apologize for loving myself,
I will not apologize for being a certain kind of way,
I won't apologize for not being the person you wanted me to be.
You know why?
Because I'm something better than that.
I'm not a thing to be stared at and called pretty,
I'm not born to be a stick and have a thin and curvy body,
I'm not born to speak softly,
And I AM NOT your Barbie doll,
And I never will be.
I have dreams to achieve,
Things to do,
Places to explore,
And most of all,
I'm here for the moment.
If everything WAS beautiful,
It still is.
And even if it isn't,
I'll accept it the way it is.

Hi guys, this poem was written about the time I thought that being everything was beautiful. I always only saw the prettiness inside a person, thing, place etc. never realizing how much pain they/it had gone through. It's just like us. We may have been beautiful before, (from the inside, like in our heart, I'm not talking about the outside) and we may not have a beautiful life right now, but I swear, everything will get better. If bad times did not exist, we wouldn't know what 'good times' are. If crying did not exist, we would not know what smiling is. And most important of all, is sadness did not exist, we wouldn't know what happiness is.
So cheer up my babies and scream this out loud, "I LOVE MYSELF, AND I WILL NOT CHANGE FOR ANYONE ELSE." And always remember,
You are not alone. I am there for you and I will be there for you no matter what.
