roar #7


I am someone

I walked past a dead face

even though the person was alive


I saw my eyes in the mirror

and cried at the sight

I looked at a person

I didnt know

and I met a friend

I got heads to turn

when I walked past


I learned a lot about myself

when I lost a new friend

I cried every tear in my body

when I thought about love

I got hit bad

then got back in the ring


I climbed a mountain of rocks

and saw an eagle fly over- head

I heard terrible things about myself

when no one thought I was listening


I realized I was strong

when I didn¹t cry when it hurt

I found out who I was

when I was with someone else

I thought I was lost forever

when a friend found me

I held a life in my hand

and it was my own


I was a pawn in someone else's game

so I surrendered to a brook


I walked the fine line between surviving

and not wanting to survive


I still am

I am someone
