Here I lay,
unsure why I pay?
For others mistakes,
and deal with their heartaches.

Being so strong,
trying to put right every wrong.
Losing sight of my own dream,
that flows from me into a stream.

The stream that holds all my needs,
which because I negated belong with the weeds.
Without knowing I let them go,
as I fixed up others aiding them to grow.

Trying my hardest to make their life okay,
yet I still can't find my way.
No one guides me away from here,
or comforts me as I shed a tear.

Things become clearer as I step back,
realising white can sometimes be black.
Opening my mind a tiny bit more,
I see some dreams I managed to store.

I still hold them in my heart,
as well as the desire to make a new start.
So with these hands my dreams I embrace,
negating no more what I FEARED TO FACE!!!
