      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Collective thoughts</strong></p><p></p><p>I believed myself to be damaged piece, puzzle incomplete.</p><p>Like part of malice nature’s weak personality.</p><p>There was no abbreviation for me.</p><p>I was that weight on someone’s heart when things went wrong.</p><p>The painful tears of memories brought from that one song.</p><p>A crumbled up paper with the realization of how to move forward took too long.</p><p>The choice that was past the last one.</p><p>I use to think that balance to everything was off because I simply existed.</p><p>Never to be trusted to be someone’s “fix it.”</p><p>My heart begged and begged me to see, that I was causing no one misery.</p><p>But how could I know if even when I opened my eyes I still felt the same? Sad, tired of being alive.</p><p>Not knowing who to go to trust with these thoughts in my mind.</p><p>So I kept living with meshed thoughts that would never allow to filter good thoughts through.</p><p>I dealt every morning as another point I would misunderstand the beauty in the worldview.</p><p>And as my thoughts would explode and collide I felt the more I was lost the more I became kind.</p><p>Slowly gears turned in my soul.</p><p>I stopped making things about me and began tackling the world bold.</p><p>I still got hurt but felt I melted to become new mold.</p><p>Being different now and willing to listen, wanting to understand.</p><p>The world still lonely even with all weight on me I now wanted life.</p><p>I felt I could. Believing, I can.</p>]]></description>
