Self Delight
By Andrew lorenzzi | From : Miramar, FL | School : Everglades High School
You can close your eyes
To things you don’t want to see
But you can’t close your heart to things
You don’t want to feel
Childhood memories of playing in the pool
Swimming competitions
Breakfast at waffle house floods the dome
But there is a darker side of this kid’s story
That is still going on
The jealousy and envy from the outer family
A 17 year old kid making it in Los Angeles
“but why him, he doesn’t deserve it”
“He hasn’t actually worked for anything”
People just hate on things they don’t understand
Hurt overpowers you when your family isn’t proud of you
But you’re not sure what to do
Confusion and hurt now floods your mind
But then you look at yourself
And understand the only one that needs to be proud of you
Is yourself
Self-love is the best love
