Crush Or Create

Questioning the hard times

Finally, victory.

Yet I feel like the problem has come right back and tackled me full on.

What's the point if it feels like this?

Maybe I should give up.

Or maybe I should just stop second guessing myself.

Or maybe I should just take it one day at a time.

But why is that so hard?

My head's caught between my parents.

My heart's caught between myself and a boy.

My spirit has been crushed and torn.

This is too much for one being to take.

I would turn to suicide but there's so much I can do in the future.

My potential is great.

But the encouragement is very little.

I have turned to depression but all it did was suppress me more.

My creativity was stunted.

But the determination built higher.

I will turn to a boy but choosing him over myself will be strange.

My confidence finally up.

But the choice is his to crush or create.

I really like this poem. It is a time of confusion; however, the victories can be so glorious! Just remember that it isn't a boy who can crush or create you, although the feelings you may recieve from him may give you an immediate high. Never choose a boy over your own self worth. You are an incredible person. So creative, sensitive, beautiful and intelligent. The boy you want to be with encourages all your strengths and never makes you feel left behind. :) Kimi
