“Aroha”, love in Maori, meaning “A quality to treat others in an affectionate way”...my parents never treated me like this.
I was taught to be obedient and proper, I had many responsibilities in the house, I need to learn how to be perfect or else my parents would think i’m a failure. I felt lost. It was demanded I abide my parents. All I want is their love and affection…
Cleaning and obeying is all I do, I don’t know who I am,
I’m not me, I’m not you.
My life is full of devastation and I need to cover it with a disguise,
my friends have my back but I’m still dead and broken inside.
I’ve got to do something, I’m on the edge,
I have to be quick before I fall off the ledge.
How am I going to face this?
The old self I miss,
I’m so lost in this never ending abyss.
My overthinking mind hurts from the sadness it brings.
The negative thoughts are overcoming my head.
I need to get up, I need to bring back my old self,
my voice needs to be heard as loud as it can
I need to focus on myself, on me and my brand
