I'll let you watch me.

I'll let you watch me.

I grew up in my small little world. A world, I knew I would feel secure. But years pass by when even that same little haven I created for myself was being invaded. The innocence of the world was on my shoulder. I was simple minded. Always seeing the good in people. Though the world was harsh. People were mean. Still I didn't really give a damn about what other people think of me. I didn't care. They endlessly point out all my imperfections, made fun of me, and belittle me. It came to a point where people who I treated fairly became prejudiced. People whom I thought had a good facade were actually snakes in metaphor. There was a time where lies were spread, reputation were destroyed, and a person's dignity was being stampled. Through it all, there were people who knew the truth. People who weren't affected by the brainwashing others had intended. It was during that time where I found genuine people. People who actually cared. No matter how many lies people made up to shake me, it's a menial thing because what's really essential for me is to be surrounded by people who loves me. Their love is enough to sustain me. So, people who kept throwing shades at me will fade away like dust. Sure, they can stalk me all they want. Talk about me behind my back. But that's the only thing they can do. Stay behind me. Some people exist for gossip, and take pleasure in the bad things that befall me. It's sad how their mentality works. It's even contagious. They will always end up miserable. Living a life green with pure envy. The type of people who will keep counting other people's blessings instead of theirs will never have satisfaction in life. They will try to destroy what good you have because either they don't have it or they pretend a life full of lies. I will not allow other people to have the power over me. So I've decided to let them watch me. I let them watch me climb to the top.
