Only You

Only You
© By Anonymous

A person can make you feel high,
A person can make you feel low.
But only you can decide,
Which way you want to go.
A person can hurt you mentally,
A person can hurt you physically.
But only you can place,
A limit on your abilities.
A person can cause drama,
A person can cause a situation.
But only you can create,
Your own reputation.
A person can make you laugh,
A person can make you cry.
But only you can make,
Decisions for your life.
I guess what I'm trying to say,
That when you're living day to day.
Don't live by what people do,
But live by what you know is true.

I really like this poem because it makes me think of some life experiences that I have gone through. This poem inspires a person to look past any negativity handed out through life and make a positive out of it. I have taken my personal experiences in life that have hurt me with enormous pain and have used them to drive me to do better than whatever thing is bringing you down. I have started school and love going to the gym. This has given me a positive release of built up emotions that could have been expelled in a manner that could make matters worse.

  2. Love it. I think you are the only one that can make your own choices. Don't let anyone try to pur you down for the decisions you make. We all make good and bad decisions for a reason.
