A Poem For My Alterego

And you will never hurt me again

A Poem For My Alterego
geminrian.blogspot.com

An alter ego is your worst self; it is the complete opposite of who you are, almost like a devil side to you that you never knew you had unless it comes out when you are sad or angry.

Sad, distressed, and confused

That is what you want me to be

You want me to suffer

And lose every time

You bring me to my lowest

And never are afraid to drag me behind

But I have this little message for you so then you know I changed my mind

I am growing up way past you

If you think you are out to get me, you better think again

In my time of need I had people near by

You may have made your visits abrupt but you never took over

But all you do is wish the worst on me

And I will never let that down

Now that your battles have lost and mine took a great victory

The mistakes I made will never die

Because you will remind me of them again

Just because I remember my mistakes does not mean anything bad

It reminds me of who you want me to be and of who I once was

People make mistakes and that cannot change, ever

But I know one thing is for sure, I will never let you control me again.

Good bye alter ego, for now that is.

You may come back but not anytime soon

Because I have grown up way past you

And you will never hurt me again.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
