My Transformation
written by: Eric Shelman
Continuously failed
fallen, chosen wretchedness
over happiness
Being mentally
damaged, hurt by others, and
wrongfully reacting
Realizing that l am
the culprit, and ringleader
for most, my problems
Finally wanting
and choosing self-love instead
of self-hatred, grasps
Feeling exhausted
drowning, hiding, hurting in
temporal delights
Beyond tired I am
always running away from
my problems, and self
Never addressing
or assessing, solving, them
nor responsible
Today is the day
starting my transformation
day, changing for me
No longer needing
or wanting approval of
others, living life
Learning, living in
moments enduring, madness
gladness, and sadness
Thinking and taking
good, bad times as adventures
controlling feelings
Calming my anger
enragement, pyschosis
freeing their grasping
Worrying not about
anything l can not control
working what I can
Being real to
myself, and stop pretending
comfortably not
Doing and being
better for me and towards
others, around me
Changes are harder
achieved than said, however
I will obtain them.
