Overcoming Self

By megaprime81

Sometimes I hide myself away
In a place i'd rather not go
There's nothng i can say
Except i hate myself sometimes

I disappear within myself
Searching for answers i can't find
I long to be so much more
But somehow i've fallen behind

Help me if you can
Heal me if you will
I cannot help just who i am
Or exactly what i feel

Too much time here on my own
Denied of the contact that i need
Right now my heart's on fire
And it bleeds for all of you

I want to live a normal life
Helping those who are in need
More often than not i tend to fail
If just once i could succeed.

I love all of you, my friends
But now it's time for me to go
Where i'll wind up, i can't say
Nor do everything i know

I need shelter, some place to hide
If only for a few days
I have to overcome myself
In so many different ways

Author's Note:

At times, i can be pompous. I feel i need to go somewhere else and hide until i can understand what i need to...or maybe i need to find some people to hang with for a little while.
