Nothing Has Changed

Today was one of those days where you just wake up angry,
and so then everything pisses you off.
You yell when you don't mean too, and
you accidentally say what you don't want too.
But then during the day (after a few hours of calming down 
and regaining some energy) you seem to find joy.
But once it gets late, you start getting that droopy face,
those swollen eyes, runny nose (since it's January in Utah),
your limbs get weaker, and that not so minor headache...
everything your body does to
let you know it's time to crash.
And then you get that 2 hour pep talk really late at night
from your mother...all about how you need to start
 improving your life and get better.
And now your pissed off all over again
because you already know you're not doing your best,
and you definitely don't need someone 
to remind you of it.
So now you're about to have one of those days
when you fall asleep angry.
And realize nothing has changed since this morning
when you woke up.

Simply Human

I loudly laugh
I unwillingly cry.
I hurt deep inside.
My body bleeds.
My body heals.
I sit and wonder.
I stand and suffer.
I quietly listen.
I purposely ignore.
I talk my own way.
I walk my own way.
I experience.
I fight when i believe.
I eat more than I should.
I grow until I stop.
I change all the time.
I admire others.
I inspire others.
Some people I hate.
Some people I love.
I make mistakes,
but I live every day
in my own way 
because I'm simply human.
