Lessons

It would feel so good
To scream as loud as I can
Just leave behind all the illusions
And endless conventions of man

Break my heart, challenge my mind
Through everything I will survive
Push me down, try to cover my eyes
I will always remember that I am alive

My smiles may come and go
Tears always falling like rain
Life is a river of emotion
Filled with happiness, fear and pain

Life has taught me many lessons
Everyone ringing so true
From the first breathe I took
To the last moments with you

I can't help and please everyone
Or make their dreams come to be
And before I can love anyone
I must first truly love me
