Potential
By jwhwz •
Right now, my head is very clear;
And, no, I do not need a beer.
I just wish, on cigarettes, that I was less addicted;
It is a drug with which I am afflicted.
But, I do not know if I am smoking less;
Because, I do not feel depressed.
I am living in cleaner air;
For now, for myself, I need to care.
It doesn't help me when someone treats me like a kid;
On this fact, I need to put a lid.
Because, oh no, heaven forbid;
I should mature, but that's what I did.
For, to be true to my fullfillment in life;
I cannot be Jacob's wife.
For, being in a relationship holds me back;
And will end up giving me a heart attack.
I can be a good person and be influential;
Because I think I have potential.
The only problem is that my strength comes in phases;
I often need to go into dazes.
For I never get a real break from my own fear;
That's why, at times, I need a beer.
