"As long as I have strength left, friends by my side, and the will to succeed, it's not over yet." -myself


They said we'd never be the same

We begged to differ

But now we stare at what remains



We follow the prejudice

And chase the taunting names...



I can't help but wonder

If flowing the beaten and broken path

Was a systematic blunder



The memories are the strangest

We've been through so many changes

We couldn't wait to be stronger

And now we find ourselves...



Waiting even longer



Our old selves slipped away

We paid the price,

We couldn't afford to pay



Every day...



We search for the heart so kind

The best part of us

The part we couldn't find...



Somewhere along our journey, we faltered

Forever since,

We've been altered
