You Keep Me Going.
December 6, 2016
I don't know what to think
I don't how to feel ---
I hate myself.
It wasn't always that way.
Just years of dirty words
that are thrown my way.
They knock me down --
I get back up.
They continue throwing
I keep falling. ---
I've fallen so far now
that I don't know if --
If it's possible for me...
to get back up.
My life is getting darker.
I'm giving up.
I am losing hope for myself.
There's one thing...
One person that keeps me moving.

I wrote this piece due to the fact that I have always been put down by people who think they're better than everyone else. All of my words are true. That one person that keeps me going makes me feel like I'm on cloud 9. He doesn't put me down, he cares for me, he makes me feel special. He's my muse and also the reason that I can keep pushing on and believe in myself.
