Habit
How many times
must I crash and burn,
Until I open my eyes
to the leason to be learned
Everywhere I go,
Pointing a finger.
Instead of seeking the answers
from the one in the mirror.
My inability to accept
the world for how it is
renders me incapable
of controlling my own two fists.
Lashing out in anger
at anything, but never anyone.
My self destructive path
always feels like it's just begun.
And now it's finally happened,
I've made a big mistake.
Done something to myself,
taking everything I loved away.
Forced me to re-think
My life, My choices, My actions.
To eventually reach this final conclusion
ACCEPT. LET GO... day after day.
Deal with your sh*t : ,
Life goes on, anyway

Hello : ,
I'm just hoping to find a place to share my thoughts and feelings... Even the darker ones...
Maybe even get some feedback/constructive criticism.
It'd also be pretty awesome if I was able to reach a few people.
I'd like that : ,
