A Poem by Britteny
"

Had a hard time with this but felt it was necessary

"
Messy as life can often be
I am struggling can't they see?
Swimming so hard up stream
Trying to obtain my dreams
When did I grow up and out?
Used to be without any doubts
Now jaded burned
Lessons so painfully learned
I don't feel any older than before
But life is a stressful bore
No longer a youthful teen
But stuck somewhere in between
Playing dress up and the real thing
I still love to write create and sing
I still love my music loud
I was pulled out of the clouds
Quite some time ago
No longer a wide eyed doe
Still a moody poet how am I the same
Chances blown I have no one to blame
Failure on so many parts
All has suffered even my art
Watching those around me grow
What in the world do I have to show
Weighing myself against these
I do less and less of what I please
Struggling just to mentally get by
My savor my best ally
Is always by my side
Lifting me up when I frown
Able to turn my smile upside down
We have traveled all over
I guess I found my four leaf clover
The reason I keep going on
All of my love drawn
