Tears Don't Fall

Would you hear me if I called your name?

Would you hold me if you knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong.

The path I walk is in the wrong direction.

Tears Don't Fall - Bullet For My Valentine

So, this is my first blog post. I'm sure everyone starts their first blog off a little nervous and unsure what to say...but, I've found a new confidence in myself by even deciding to create a blog and reveal the thoughts I consider private and maybe a little embarrassing.

I've never been a confident person, which is one of my many flaws. I put up a tough and sarcastic exterior to protect myself from having to understand the inner workings of my own mind and emotions. "Just act ok, and you'll be ok." That's been my motto for years.

The "No really, I'm fine" era in my life needs to come to an end.

So,with this blog, I'll start to admit to myself, and the world (or whoever has enough patience to read my ramblings), the things I've opened my eyes to in the last seven or eight months. The person I truly am is finally surfacing.

Its kind of scary, if not terrifying, to realize you may not be the person you tried to trick yourself into being.
