I have to find my strength.
Somewhere along the lines,
I lost it.
Somewhere along the lines,
I depended to much on others.
Somewhere along the lines,
the girl who knew herself,
lost herself.
Somewhere along the lines,
I became someone else.
And somewhere along the lines,
that person got left.
I have to find my strength,
I have been too weak,
for too long.
I did that to myself,
I let myself become that!
I need to find my strength,
without it,
I'll never be able to fix myself,
I'll still be dependent on others,
when I shouldn't be.
I need to find my strength,
if I want to ever get myself back.
I need to find my strength,
to be me again.

"Try to learn to breathe deeply,
really to taste food when you eat,
and when you sleep, really to sleep.
Try as much as possible to be
wholly alive, with all your might,
and when you laugh, laugh like hell,
and when you get angry, get good
and angry. Try to be alive. You will
be dead soon enough."
William Saroyan

Wow I really liked this :) I could really relate! Great job!
