Indecision

I hate what I have become

But at the same time

I love myself

For being me

I've lost so many friends

I used to love

And I hate it

But I love myself

For being me

And letting go of the others who brought me down

First impressions never last

For those I had

Exist only in the past

I thought so highly of him

Fell in love with him

As my friend

And he let me down

And never felt the same

Especially now that I?m different

And I'm not who I used to be

I hate what I've become

But I love myself

For finally being me

I've struggled through pain

Most everyone knows

I'm unstable with a big heart

And trusting of those

Who eventually stab me in the back

And I always forgive them

And move on with life

Until another insult arises

I take everything too personally

I cry when a dirty look is thrown my way

And I hate it

I hate what I?ve become

But I love myself

For finally being me

I gave up on God

I gave up on my mother

I took control of my life

And made my own decisions

I finally feel happy

And never have a second thought

I don't pray anymore

I don't cry over faith

I don't cut my arms open to get much needed attention

I smile more often

I dance in the rain

I don't argue or shout at people I love

But I still hate what I?ve become

But I still love myself for being me

I love that for once

I'm on top of the world

And I know which direction to turn to

I hate what I used to be

Directed by false idols

And what other people said

I love what I've become

Exactly who I've always dreamed of being

And for once

My smile is completely

Genuine

Because I love the person I am
