I will rise again

I'm sad.
I'm sad because what I once was I can never be again.
I'm stuck in a never ending cycle.
You make friends and lose them.
Now I've lost them all.
I'm at the bottom of the circle, just waiting to rise again.

I'm sad.
I'm sad because I'll never quite be who I want to be.
I'm stuck in a never ending cycle.
You build up the courage to change who you are.
And then you lose it.
I've lost it once again
I'm at the bottom of the circle just waiting to rise again.

[Caelan Pendergrass]

This is a great way to express the uncertainty of who we are at times. Our identity can be so fluid and yet we feel pressured into trying to be the same person throughout everything. That's what i got out of this poem. kudos.
