"Learn the rules like a pro so you can break them like an artist." -Pablo Picasso


I was going insane

So sick of the pain

I would complain

and was just generally vain

 

I'd stand in the rain

and clutch onto my veins 

I didn't have the brain

To realize I had the whole world to gain

 

One day I tore all the chains

Took a sip of some champagne

Ran out, screaming, driving in the fast lane

Because I decided to let go of my restrains

 

That black stain I had on me for so long

It was gone, and I am free

This is for the people who are struggling to let go of something that brings them down. I'm telling you, trust me, you will be able to cope without it and you will soon, if not now then later, live a happy life.

It's a very relate-able poem. I love it. It's actually quite beautiful. :)
