Unwanted Visitor

I'd say I was done, you let me assume I was free

63
Unwanted Visitor
Giulio D'Alfonso

You tried to bring me down, and I’ll admit it was a good shot.

but to think that this mental game is over, that’s pretty laughable

cause its not. The world never revolved around me, though you made

it seem like it did. Whispers of insult and insecurities, cut through my mind

like a sharp winter breeze. You see where I come from most people would

like to assume you don’t exist, but in fact like a coward you hide in the shadows,

the corners, the mist. Making me feel useless, worthless. You disguised yourself so well.

Looked like pleasure but at soon as you got me you trapped me into my own mental hell.

I’d like to say I’m done and you’d let me

assume I was free

. But as soon as you saw me happy, you changed yourself again. Selling me a palace filled with lies, you always knew

me vs you.

I was too weak to win and as soon as I lost I no doubt let you in. Because in my mind there was no

me without you.

I thought I didn’t deserve to smile. You took note of all my weaknesses, like a therapist you kept them in a

neat file.

But what you didn’t realize was I had found an

escape.

You see through words I could decide my own

mental fate.

And though this fight is nowhere near done. The one thing that truly matters is for now Unwanted Visitor,

this victim finally won.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
