"I haven’t woken up everyday seeing the world the way I do now. I used to wake to a broken world. With a broken dream. A broken future." - Rachel Maretsky
Imagine knowing you’re different, knowing that nobody view things the same as you. Knowing you can see past the surface. Knowing that you know the power every individual holds within them. You get along better with adults and tend to act more mature. (Most of the time)
You have a better sense of commitment to having a healthy social life. You have made an ever growing promise to love and not hate. To become better then what the world has told you to be. To become more than what anyone says you can be. To become, what you have aspired to be.
It’s like the world took my eyeballs and gave me different ones. Sometimes I feel I don’t deserve the ones I have. Sometimes the beautiful things I see, I cannot appreciate the way I need to. It’s as if I see everything, different. My mind is a mind field for analogies. Sometimes, I can’t handle it all. I usually feel overwhelmed. I often forget I am lucky to see this way.
I find something positive in everyone. You can look up or you can look down, but truly the choice is up to you. You can view this world, the way I do. But, it’s a choice. Being negative is harming. We must see the world getting better instead of getting worse. Have hope in the place you are
headed, because you do control your own destiny.
Not all find the way I am changing, a good thing. Some are so stuck in their ways and beliefs they are too selfish to see I am becoming a better person for myself. A better person, in the eyes of the non selfish.
I love. Not hate.
I respect. Like you deserve, like everyone.
You have my everything, until you take advantage.
I will always listen. Always.
I am on opportunist. I take the chance. Good or Bad.
I accept consequences. I know I have to.
I will open my heart very easily. Please don’t spit into it.
If the way I’m changing offends you, please take a step back, and wake up.
Take me as I am, or watch me as I go.
I will always be myself, nothing less.
An Ever-Growing Wonder - We Came as Romans
So when I stare back into my own eyes I try to peer past, and try to understand. My imperfections compose my composure and I can live with them and you will live by me. So let us restore each other, not with haste, but gently, for an empty cup, an empty cup cannot fill another
