Love Thyself, No Other

Folder: 
April 2011

I'm lost and this is what i wanted all along,
to prove to myself i was worthy enough to belong,
enough to make my down in the dumps parents proud,
and notice me like they did when i was a kid being loud,

hard to move on from everything, the deaths and the changes,
like it's hard to run when you're surrounded, they witnessed the exchanges,
my father has stayed the same, mother changed for the worst,
hard to talk to her now, feel like my life is cursed,

lost Nonnie first, then her apartment to Bob's bitch,
then my college ambition, then my bitch to Rich,
then my best friend left for his dream, i'll never be the same,
i'll never again look to go all in with a dame,

maybe i should have thought more ahead, that would have been better,
i lost everything important to me, nothing lasts forever,
yet never will i give up, never look to another for help,
when all i need to live happily is to love myself.
