I stand on anything I need to advocate for, because I am my biggest supporter. I want more and more for myself and I see me accomplishing it all.

VOX Teen Poetry: Inner Soul

by share

I am a soul. 

My aura radiates love and compassion from the core. 

I was made from two other souls who want to see me soar.

And sometimes I wonder how my soul will intertwine with others alone, because I don’t want to end up unknown.

I hear about things, and I see things occur but I never want to be in the middle of it because I would just prefer to stay to myself and better myself for the benefit of my own soul. 

I tend to want to keep to myself because my mind wanders beyond compare.

I don’t find myself with the people my age because our minds are different and despair

I enjoy my own company, it’s peaceful and calming 

I listen to music to escape and break away from reality

I feel at peace, reading and music helps me.

I touch my own heart, try to be my own inspiration, build myself up, encourage myself.

I worry about others, but it’s time to worry about myself. 

My soul and heart genuinely needed me and I am here to provide any and everything.

I cry easily. I am very sensitive and emotional, yet I control my own feelings behind whatever is wrong.

I stand on anything I need to advocate for, because I am my biggest supporter

I want more and more for myself and I see me accomplishing it all. 

I am a person, a special one, in fact

I understand how to not be arrogant because there’s a difference between knowing your capabilities and bragging about your capabilities.  

I say a lot. I use my words to express myself and my feelings but sometimes it’s better to be quiet and let my mind roam on its own.

I dream about my future all the time 

I try my best to to open myself up to many opportunities to help me achieve my dreams

I hope I make it and the day I do I will be overjoyed with happiness and all, beyond proud of the person I will become.

I know I can do it and I know I will. 

I am a soul.
