in constant search to find my true self
to grow from the purest wealth
that knowledge can give thyself
need and continuously looking for ways to express myself
ways to bring my inner self
out
my life is a rollarcoaster of emotions
a quest for complete devotion
to keep me in motion
I know the pain
of life and what i have to gain
so hard to obtain
the exact words to explain
of being misunderstood again
and again
so hard to maintain
just filled with emptiness and pain
a need to think
till i cannot blink
physically exhausted and begin to sink
need a private place to call my own
so i let it be known
i want to be alone
in the "freedom" to my own limitation
seekin knowledge and exploration
to release my wild imagination
with minimal frustration
of others opinion to my salvation
no degradation
life offers so many questions i want to find
no longer to be blind
and left behind
why can't i dream in my own fantasy?
why should i have to live in someone else's "true reality"?
