Strength

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.

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

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