    Standing in this place

    that i call home
    i'm trying to find myself
    cause i'm slowly losing my mind

    As time passes on
    i began to forget who i am or what i have become
    i'm fading away in time
    while my thoughts become lost in my head

    I create a box
    to cut myself off from the world
    i'm still lost in this place called life
    and no one can save me

    Trying to find myself in you
    is what you made me do
    you've built me up
    to become something i'm not

    You want me to be
    exactly like you
    and nothing of what
    i want to be

    Trying to find myself in you is killing me
    all this anger and hate
    is building up on the inside
    in my box i scream

    I'm trying to break free
    but you won't let me go
    i trying to escape all the pain
    that you have caused me

    As soon as i break free
    i will finally find myself
    and be exactly what you
    didn't want me to be

    Now i'm free
    and i'm finally being me
    Cause now i have found myself
    and there's nothing that you can do
    to stop me from being me

    you're breaking free child so don't you ever let anyone make you be what you don't want to be ... you write from the heart and you're going through what many, many teenagers all over the world experience... let it out but whatever you do, don't start hating cos that will make you bitter and twisted like those who want to put you down.
    Your prose comes from the heart ... keep writing.
