Help Me To Understand Myself – Written Thursday 11th January 2001 (Aged 25)

Help Me To Understand Myself

help me –
to help me understand myself
i feel anger
but i have to restrain
because i am in danger of losing my way again
i’ve taken out my frustrations on others
help me –
to help me understand myself
i feel, pity, anger and annoyance
others come close
but i just do not feel buoyant
but when i talk to you i feel it dispersing
you help me –
to help me understand myself
i am taking a journey now
it is time for me to come home to myself
meeting you has been good
you have helped me –
to help me understand myself
