Array ( [sid] => 48694 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => That's not really me! [time] => 2004-05-22 16:52:06 [hometext] => its hard to follow your heart nowadays when we live in such a corrupt world.... and its even harder to try and change your ways to try and be a better person for God. [bodytext] => Deep within these golden locks my true me hides inside
So very few have met her, because she always hides
She's afraid of all things around... the real world you would say
and simple things like a pretty rose seems to make her day!

I wish that you could meet her... I wish that she was strong.
But every time she surfaces something must go wrong.
She then gets buried deeply.... and these other things arise.
And seem to cease my body right before my eyes.

These other things are stronger ...you may even think they're me
But Im telling you there is someone else that you have yet to see.

And every morning when I wake I pray to God that he will take ...
these other things away
making my life easier and perhaps a better day.

And even when she surfaces and feels that she is strong.
The ones who claim to love her most ...really wishes she were gone.

They love the other things that seem to captivate my soul.
The things that make me do the things that noone thinks are wrong.

I wish that I could be myself and let my true self shine with joy.
But I guess that's in a perfect world ...

...a fairytale... where the good girls shine.

Wait on Him
and let it be
for He will give
good things to thee
Trust in Him
rather than you
and He will show you
what to do.

for a moment here you did shine...don't be afraid to shine forth because if more people did it would change this world a lot more than you think

This is a very good poem, You have a few misspellings in it, if you correct these it will be even better.

"We have this gift in a jar of clay so that God's all surpassing glory can be seen in the hearts of men" (women)
