Theres beauty to be found

In the struggle of a

Semi-Sweet kind of Street

I write what i know

And i know what its like to struggle to grow

Once you’re further along

Than the thick of the fray

You may one day come to say

I did it.

I didn’t do it because it was easy

I didn’t do it because it was the right thing

Or the hard thing

I did it for me.

Like a dot in spiral

I stand in defiance

Of denying yourself

Less than you deserve.

Be the best you, that you can be

And realize that sometimes

Semi-Sweet

Is better than decadence

Because a dance is best

When theres drunken stumbles involved.
