The finish line seems so close. It seems the faster I run, the further away it travels. I'm exhausted but yet I drag my feet through each minute of each hour of each day. I'm tired of seeing the same monotomous, blank faces each day as I drown in their empty words. I'm tired of screaming and hearing nothing but my own voice echo back to me over and over again. I'm fed up with people trying to comfort me with their hollow words. I'm tired of breathing in this dense fog that only gets thicker with time. It's getting hard to breath. It's making me sick. You're only 16. You're only how old? Whatever. Everything I do is renforced with by a passion. I'm not letting anyone stand in my way. No. I am not going to let people walk all over me. No. I'm taking charge. I'm pushing through the crowd and knocking down anyone who tries to get in my way. Avoiding all unnessicary obstacles I'm going to get what I want, and not let anyone take that away from me. I'm going to lock it up inside. And you know what I'm gonna say to those who try and hold me back? Your loss. It's your time that is being wasted away by trying to minmize others success. And so if you yourself aren't succeeding, then....who is? Me. And you know what I am going to say to anyone who tries to destroy my dreams? I'm going to tell them that that is simply not possible. For dreams not real to begin with. They are the meer perputlant hope for the future. And do you know what I will say to those people who always said no? I will say yes. Cause now is the time. Not tomorrow. Not yesterday. Today. Carpe diem. Make the most of every hour that you are given. Cherish the things that are never given a second thought. Give them that second thought. Make what you do count. Be the best version of yourself you can without changing who you are. Be the kind of person people look up to. Do that for yourself. Don't wait. Do not put off until later what can be done now. Most importantly don't give up on hope. Expect nothing and be pleasantly suprised. Don't run from lifes troubles for they only make you stronger. Strive for things in life that give you character. Never loose sight of who you are. If you do, you may wind up trying, perhaps succeeding in becoming someone else. And that, my friend, could be the biggest mistake of your life.
