Breaking The Cycle

There was once a time where everything was so so blue

Tried to fix it, did everything i could do

Nothing worked, i couldn't find my way out

Day after day of my happiness drought

I was deeply lost in the fog of despair

My thoughts even gave those around me a scare

I gave up, and gave in

Spending years reminiscing about what could have been My thoughts whispered in my ears, keeping me

up for days

But one day I found the key to get out of this phase

And I learned joy isn't a destination

All it takes is a little self persuasion

How can you be your own enemy and expect contentment?

If you beat yourself up, why would you not feel resentment?

You see it's all in your head

And if you dont fix it that hatred will spread

Connect with people who are good to & for you

Both of you will grow

Remember you become what you feed your mind

To that fact most are blind

Im sure youve heard it a million times, but happiness comes from inside

Not from objects, or people, believe me many have tried
