    Inner Angles 12/31/2008
    Inner Angles 12/31/2008
    I’ve gone thru so much already in my life
    Life is strife and pain like knives
    It’s my strides—how I strive to believe
    When all of my body my mind wants to deceive
    Makes me perceive that it’s too late
    End of debate—forget an escape
    But I know inside
    That this is not fate—but thoughts of self hate
    The voices speak in words inaudible but compelling
    Draggin me in—tearing me down
    Outside I smile—inside a frown
    I drown in anxiety – insecurity
    A moment an eternity
    But I can’t succumb to these feelings inside
    When I know it’s false
    I’m so much stronger than even I know
    Have so much more to know and grow … Show!
    I have so much more to give
    So much more to create in this world of beauty and might
    I can’t help but fight defeat though pressures squeeze tight
    Think I can’t stand it
    Till I start to demand it
    From myself
    This hand I’ve been dealt
    The best hand I could’ve been given
    The only way I’ll ever be jailed
    Is if within I am imprisoned.

    I am not much for rhyme for I feel that it can subject the true thought being expressed into a collective box - in other words, words are penned just because the sound like another not because they express the true feeling of the author --- I said al
