My Turn
By HeAveNsEnT
I have to be strong, I tell myself now I have to find how to get past it somehow I live and learn and learn it well I'll hold on to what I've got like hell I have to be wise, I know how to be I have to know even the things I don't see I found myself, and within I found power Power and respect that can make them all cower I have to be tough, there's no other way I have to block out all the things that they say No one should matter to me, but me Just being myself is all I can be I'm glad I know now, what took me so long I have to grow wise before growing strong It may be hard and hurt it may But sometimes I've just gotta turn away Moving on and letting go Holding back feelings I can't bear to show What feels right is mostly not real People change with the way that they feel Experience is my teacher, I know him well He helps me remember the times that I fell I use them to guide me through new situations Without having hopes and high expectations And when I start to lose my way He tells me tomorrow's another day Another day to live and learn Let myself live...it's my turn Written January 5th, 2002 © on Jan 07 2002 11:29 AM PST 18 • 0 • 12
