    Who I Could've Been

    I act so strong on the outside like nothing bothers me,
    I put up these walls around me being careful who I let in, but inside I am crying!
    Dying for someone to hear my inner thoughts and accept me for who I am.
    Miss Insecurity, that is me.
    I will never amount to what you wanted me to be. " Dads sing star! "
    I guess I just never had enough confidence to go all the way even when I promised myself since I was a little girl that someday I'd be a star and the whole world would know who I am!
    I failed to realize my full potential and I let you down. I let myself down! I am truly sorry.
    I could've been somebody,
    I will never forgive myself for that!

    Try not to beat yourself up, for not becoming the person who your parents think you should be. Be yourself, discover who you are,and take it from there.You'll find your own way!

    Nice Job Martha! But as long as we have breath in our body we still have time to be what we want to be. Believe in yourself and you will be on your way.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
