Category Five

What is the difference
between confidence
and arrogance?
Standing Firm or turned to stone --
a Stolen house
my heart, my home
Needing to be
better than she (it's me)
Becoming a Pillar
so I can stand tall
or nothing at all
Category Five
I'm living in the Eye
But I need to break out
if I'm going to survive
Know your worth
No absence of self
And all of my memories
placed high on a shelf
Mean girls, Jealous hearts
tear away at my soul
but not anymore
my heart will be whole
my eyes will be crystal
my head, held high
know your prize
why we survive
Be confidence, be connected
I will not be rejected
I'll stand
thank-you ma'm
Mailman, deliver this news
full of broken cues, disaster moves
Category 5
I need to stay alive.
