Rise Above

I just can't seem to get over this..
I Know...
Rise above..
Do not cry..
Never scream..
Never ever let
them know your dreams..
To say them out load..
will surely make them vanish..
Jealously, hatred, envy..
I know all their schemes..
I know they have the power..
to destroy my sacred dreams..
Rise above!!!
God, I hate that saying..
Rise above this pain..
You have always done it..
Just do it again.
Pretend it is not your heart..
they are ripping apart..
Pretend you are someone else..
change your name.. make a new start.
Just remember. do not make friends
Family does not exist..
Remember most of all
unconditional love is simply a myth..
Now go on --- rise above..

Erica
