WHAT’S WITHIN MYSELF

 

I’m beginning to understand and too see,

The good that is inside this person that’s me.

There are many things about which i care,

About where i’m headed in a land of uncertainty.

Within me lies a man of strength,

Just a moment of weakness has taken from me.

A smile lives beneath, sometimes far down,

On the surface pain hidden behind the act of a clown.

What’s within myself a small boy trying to find,

A man that may survive in todays state of mind.

What’s within myself is a hope for a better tomorrow.

  1. this is my kind of affirmation. i don’t know you personally but based on your works, you’re a great person and very much worthy of anything positive coming your way in the future, even if it doesn’t feel that way at times.
    beautiful poem.
