The after affect

by alive in death   Jan 15, 2006


I am a after thought
i sit on the sidelines
I'm dying to step out
but every time i do it seems like,
theres no one who would listen to me.

at times this stagnant effort,
has made me feel.....
unaccomplished,
reclusive.
there have been occasions where i thought,
that it was all hopeless.

very rarely, i have found hope in peace
but on those rare times theres always a set back
I'm so sick of the brick walls that keep forming,
right in front of my path.

i just want, for once, to be able to see the road ahead.
to have a clear vision of my goal in life.
to be motivated like never before.
i want a fire in me, i just don't know how to start it.

for once, i don't want to endure the after affect,
the mistakes and screw ups,
that everyone i know hands down to me.
why do i have to except all these problems?

why can't i just say no, and move on?

i want to succeed.

    I can feel your frustration in this poem and it is really well written. It is hard to fullfil a goal in life and even harder to find one. I had a hard time with this for a long time because I thought I didn't have any talents that could do anything for myself. I was confused with life and that got me into a lot of trouble. So I would tell you to look to your strengths, not just the obvious talents but the unique ones too. My strengths turned out to be in writing, singing and my people skills, talents I thought I never had. So I would try to look at yourself a bit and see what you like about yourself, anything at all and play towards that.
