Favorite Quote:
The greatest act of courage is to be and to own all of who you are- without apology, without excuses, without masks to cover the truth of who you are.<br /> -Debbie Ford


All hopes are dashed
In a city of glass
And your dreams start to crash
Down to the floor

All the reflections
Show imperfections
And you lose all directions
And fail once more

All of the voices
Detaining your choices
When broken rejoices
Losing your mind

Others seem perfect
But say your not worth it
The dreams that once surfaced
Stutter and drown

When people are paper
No longer the maker
Yet there's no taker
You’re shredded to bits

Your life is in Chaos
The worlds at a loss
You seem to be tossed
Can't make the mark

When all hopes are dashed
In the city of glass
But you know not to crash
But to stand as before


The author's comments:

When people try to push you down and hurt you learn to rise above it. Sometimes the thing you love most is the thing that is draging you down, trying to drown out your life. But learn to rise above it and try even harder than before.
