Alive
I felt helpless
I felt broken
People told me that I was incredible
But I just let that go
I didn't pay attention
To anything in any direction
I didn't care about anything
Always rejecting everything
I was always crying
Now I'm flying
Tired of fighting
The joy inside me
Where was the real me?
That question killed me
I was paralyzed
Until I looked to the sky
I'm letting go
Of the only thing I used to know
I'm putting my faith in God
Because I know he is good
I was sick of the pain
That wouldn't go away
But now I'm alive
I have nothing to hide.
I felt broken
People told me that I was incredible
But I just let that go
I didn't pay attention
To anything in any direction
I didn't care about anything
Always rejecting everything
I was always crying
Now I'm flying
Tired of fighting
The joy inside me
Where was the real me?
That question killed me
I was paralyzed
Until I looked to the sky
I'm letting go
Of the only thing I used to know
I'm putting my faith in God
Because I know he is good
I was sick of the pain
That wouldn't go away
But now I'm alive
I have nothing to hide.

This poem is about when I was in a bad place in my life and I always denied everything and I isolated myself from the ones closest to me and I only listened to the negative things people said about me rather than the good that was said. Then one day I prayed to God and I felt so much weight lifted off of my shoulders.
