Broken Crayons - Still Color
Cut My Hair - A poem based off of a Song -By Kelsey
Have you never noticed whenever you get a haircut you gain confidence as well, or is that just me?
I guess it makes me feel like I'm a new and improved person.
I feel like because I look different, even just the slightest bit, then that makes me better than I had been.
Like I'm taking a new identity.
But when I realize that I'm not as good as I thought I was.
That mentally I'm still that messed up person.
Just one little thing that sets it off in my mind.
Then I get depressed because all that happiness and confidence had been drained from my body.
I just wanted to be that happy new shiny person but I'm not, and I probably never will be.
I'm stuck the way I am, and I may live with it and do my best to go through everything or let it consume me and fail.
Hopefully I'll do the first. Even if I'm not that happy shiny person I hoped to be.
Even if I'm just me. I have to push on, if not for myself than others.
