You don’t know the obstacles I’ve surpassed,

or the struggles that I have faced.

You don’t know anything about my life,

or how my thoughts are braced.

You know nothing of how I got here,

or a bit about my past.

You don’t know if I cry at night,

or about anything, at that.

You don’t know why or who or when or what,          

so sit down.. don’t hurt your pride.

Maybe you know a snippet,

but most everything’s a lie.

You’ve heard all that has gone around,

and all that they have said.

Too bad they’re all false stories,

that you’ve mistakenly been fed.

So just to be honest and let it all be known,

there’s nothing great about it,

nothing wonderful to be told.

I got here on my own, you see,

with no one’s help but mine.

I helped me out along the way,

Thank goodness I had God.

Its me who I talked to every night,

its me that stuck around.

Me that kept me going,

and me that stood my ground.

Its me that will always listen,

and me that can understand

Me that handles all my stress,

me- my only friend.

I really need you to know this,

just to make everything clear.

There WASN’T a you or them or him or her,

nobody else but me.

So go ahead and take that seat,

you were wrong  this entire time.

Because the only people that know ME,

are Me. Myself. and I.
