By keeping and following your dreams, the suffocation of the words of the people who doubted you will lose its grip and let you breathe the fresh air of success. - Me :)


I’m floating in a pool filled with my tears

But the tears aren’t the only thing in the pool

Heartache and Despair are there too

I’ll float in this depressing pool 

Until a cold, clamy hand wraps itself around my ankle

It’s loneliness, and I let it drag me down

There’s no use fighting its pull anymore

And as it pulls me towards nothingness

It feels endless

So I close my eyes and welcome the nothingness

Because it’s better than being out there

Out in the world

Out in the world that pushed me 

Pushed me in this pool

This pool of my tears, heartache, and despair

After everything going on in life, it's easy to succumb to the pool.
