I had so many traps that hindered me

no one to blame but myself

In an effort to get along

I gave away large pieces of myself

never thought like this before

this time out has allowed me to see

When we go against ourselves

I am lying to you and me

People misconstrue an honest and open reply

if it’s not what they want to hear

they prefer that you would lie

so some would call it “selfish” or self consumed

but living a life for others……is a ticket to a place called GLOOM

this chapter is for me …….. I’ll share it but I won’t be directed or detained
