Look Within
January 25, 2007
Justene Martin

There’s a deep dark secret cavern,
A scary place where I avoid the notion
Of ever going down to find the reasons why.

Why do I avoid the very things
I know will set me free of past mistakes
Or dread the confrontation facing the truth of I?

Is it because I already know what’s in there?
Can it be I really just avoid the truth because I know,
There’s no escaping the fact that change must overtake me?

To face the facts that the only reason I am not
Who I wish to be, Can only be attributed to one person,
The blame must all be placed on one who resists change, Me.

The only way to change the mess that I have made
Is to turn around and go the other way. And take the time
That I have been alotted, and become that true me now, today!
