Young. Beautiful. Independent. Confident. <br />She must have it all <br />So they say. <br /> <br />Life has not always been so fair to me. <br />Took the wrong road so many times, I adjusted to the pain. <br />Bad decisions. Wrong crowd. Flighty and carefree <br />That was me <br /> <br />Back to what I feel is square one. <br />No parties. No money. No friends. <br />No longer am I the center of all that was fun <br /> <br />Closing my eyes and lowering my head <br />Black is what I see. <br />What do I feel? <br /> <br />The peaceful calm of being in my mothers home. <br />Comfort and a strange peace. <br />Heavy are the thoughts running rampant in my mind <br />This life is not fair or easy. People are not kind. <br /> <br />Beautiful and intelligent I am. <br />Beauty won't keep the bad away as much as it will attract it. <br /> <br />My eyes are starting to open now. <br />Things are fuzzy. But I don't want to rub them <br />I will let them see clearly on their own. <br /> <br />All that I had. <br />All that I did <br />All that I knew <br />That is the past <br /> <br />Back to Square One <br />No. <br />This is my starting point <br />My life has just begun<br /><br />neo riddick<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/square-one-2/
