Loving yourself is probably 

the most difficult thing to achieve.

People are constantly putting us down, 

talking behind our backs,

laughing at our "flaws"

and those messages become our thoughts.

It feels like the flowers just came out, 
like the snow just melted,
and the ice crystals disappeared from trees' branches, 
like the mud just came, 
but yet, 
it's all gone already. 

If I could leave behind advice
in a book 
for some lucky (or maybe unlucky)
kid to find, 
I would tell them 
be yourself,
but try not to stick out too much.

Be nice, 

The water slides gently over my exposed feet.
Sand tumbles in it's wake, 
until all I can see is a cloud of brown,
my feet all but gone. 

But the water retracts, and my feet appear again, 

Pandemonium breaks as the ringmaster
enters the stage.
Dressed in red and black,
he lookes like something straight out of 
Alice in Wonderland. 
Lights flicker on,
Illuminating the stage

Black Cat slinking in the shadows.

Pollen dripping from lush lotus flowers.

Dappled sunlight shining through gloomy clouds,

Dawn long gone.

Lost in an endless corn maze, 

no hope of getting out.
