I don't want to be me.
I want to be a stronger man
I want to be able to accomplish any task
I want to be athletic
I want to be popular
I want to be widely respected.
I think as I sit in my little corner.
Darkness around me.
The thoughts keep coming back.
Take your life, they whisper
I try to wipe them away
But I am only as strong as I think I am
I do not think I am strong.
Every day is a struggle.
I want to be strong, I whisper to myself
But I am not strong.
