life is about taking risks
putting whatever is holding you back aside
take a chance
because if you don't
you may never know

no one will ever know your thoughts
unless you voice them
and steer in the direction you want
you are the ultimate driver in your life

so you make a wrong turn
just keep exploring
you only live once

Bad Daughter

Sometimes I feel like the worst
like absolute scum

There are so many people in this world
but only a few can make me feel this way

If you are one of those people, good for you
because that means I hold you near and dear to my heart

In my mind you deserve the best
and knowing that I've let you down
is what makes me scold myself

I know that I am not
but I feel like I am
a bad daughter

I feel so empty. Alone and unwanted. I notice people check me out and I don't like it. I'm not just something to look at. I am a lonely girl, waiting for someone to love her. I enjoy compliments but that seems to be all I can get. I know I'm impatient. But I want something to happen. I'm not going to go look for love because it will come to me if it's real. Maybe it has come to me and I've blown it off. Put the blinders on. If they can't get past that, then they must not want me. Maybe it's me, maybe I'm not ready. Maybe I'm still attached. I hope there is someone out there who wants to win me over, no matter what. I hope there's someone out there who means every word they tell me. Someone who won't build me up just to break my heart. Someone who really does love me with all their heart no matter what. Impatiently waiting.....
