Fed up!

I’m tired of the way I feel.

I’m tired of taking “Happy Pills”.

I vow to myself to be who I am.

No matter what life demands.

I allow myself to be pulled in directions I know I shouldn’t go.

It’s so hard when others moods frustrate me so.

I miss who I used to be.

I wish I could set my smile free.

I vow to myself to be who I am.

No matter what life demands.

    Very emotional, we can only be who and what we are pills will never change our character. You have it so right be you and if people don’t like the real you, that is their problem not yours
