Here I stand

Feeling as if the world has conquered me
Here I stand.
Looking around I see no one,
No one besides myself that is.

Never mistaking myself for no one.
I turn inward to myself.
The only friend I ever needed,
The only person I should have ever trusted.

When no ones around I can't break down.
This is the moment in which I must stand tall
Because there all sitting around waiting to see me fall.

Here I stand,
Lost and confused.
Challenged by the obstacles of life.
I look for someone dear to me to confined in,
and I realize If the world has you down its really only up to me
To pull myself back up.

Rely not on others for the happiness in which I can provide for myself.
Today is my day as any other day is mine as well.
I deserve to be happy each day
My happiness ultimately falls all on me.

I shall do for me, as I begin to see that no one will ever care as much as I do for me.
My life, my happiness, my choices & my decisions,
Frame the woman I am to the woman I so badly want to be.
