Looking forward and not turning back.

There's so much to say.
Yet there's a deafening silence between us.
Despite actions that need to be taken.
Empty efforts make up your willingness to make things better.

I'm living off hope to escape this downhill fall.
I'm looking towards the future when I'll have nothing to hold me back.
I built a wall within myself for protection from personal attacks.
And soon, it'll be able to crumble to the ground.

But until that day I'm gripping anything that is in my reach.
To just keep moving forward despite things pulling me back.
My eyes are focusing on the prize.
The prize of starting new and finding ability to heal.

So do what you want to bring me down.
And say what makes you feel big.
But I'm done with letting you get to me.
Cause I'm concentrating on my future moments to shine.

So enjoy the outcome of your choices.
And I'll have fun with mine too.
