*Sigh* (otherwise UNTITLED)

*sigh*

The things of my mind are simple wastes of time...
that which can't be fixed. Conflicts and restrictions of mine. 
I'm trying to unwind. 
But as the minutes fly, I find that it's not that I haven't seen the light but it is myself that chose not to shine. Intrinsically superior. 
Yet we cower as if inferior..."inadequate "? HA... 
Only thru mine own eyes. From outside looking in, I am the queen of a gold mine. 
My smile beams. My soul shines. I'm a part of a legacy so divine. 
But deep within, I am weak at the spine. 
My hands are scarred. My spirit frets. 
My heart so tender it breaks at the mere thought of things I've not seen yet... TIRED... 
So yes...the things in my mind. Are often a waste of time. 
So bleak are these thoughts that they tend to smother my shine. 
But alas, I'll smile. Until the burden of pretend becomes the reality of mine.

AUDACITY OF THE ENEMY

The audacity of he who steps over you, undermines you, and deliberately tries to break you...
He uses you as the foot-stool to HIS accomplishes but falters in the background when you need uplifting. 
The audacity of the enemy...

You fuel his fire. You take his crap. You inflate his ego...
only to have it returned with a slap in the face or a stab in the back. The audacity of the enemy...
But I finally turned my back, held my head to the sky. I put my confidence back on the pedestal and revived that fire within me. The audacity of the enemy...
You're nothing but a speck in my background, a stepping stone to my soon-to-be glory. I've elevated myself above you. Oh no. Not the audacity of the enemy. Let's see the resilience inside of me... 

*For anyone who knows what it is to have sacrificed your happiness until you've surrendered your sanity, only to be trampled on or over and hurt beyond what you believe recoverable. Put your foot down, stand up, and walk away from that pain because what lies ahead is your greatness*
