I just found this in the process of shutting down my MySpace page that I haven't touched in years! LOL. I can't tell you what the 19 year old me was going through but this was in the midst of some of the roughest years of my emotional growth as a young woman. Enjoy.
Real Eyes Realize Real Lies.
Little girl, don't be blinded by the veil pulled over your head.
Although you struggle to find the meaning of your existence, it's better than being dead.
Don't let others' insecurities interfere with your growth process
They'll steady be trying to knock you down but always, firmly deny them access.
Only you can establish and uphold what you consider truth
Concentrate on being a lady inside and out and leave no room for your former nature which is vile and uncouth
Little girl, stop being content with the lies that you've come to believe
Your mind is the only roadblock to the path of all that you can achieve.
How can someone "stop [you] from becoming an adult"?
Don't let your surroundings stunt your growth and begin to admit your fault.
Withing your lies lie your deepest fears and uncertainty
Don't be controlled by them and learn to let go of your hindering and persistent insecurity.
Before you get your stuff together you have to straighten out what's within.
Now on your way up, at least you know where to begin.
All that you seek is already inside of you
Cliché but you know it's true, so stop shying away from what you know you have to do.
Patience is key in letting go of all that you hold bottled inside.
Little girl, let go of the bitterness and false hopes, don't force your soul, your compassion and your mind to hide.
Real eyes realize real lies
So, learn, little girl, to see the world through real eyes.
