Most men build their lives around someone else.
They fall in love, get married... and somewhere along the way, they forget who they were.
They stop chasing their dreams.
They stop going to the gym.
They stop trying to look, feel, or become better.
Life stops revolving around them, and starts revolving around someone else.
But my life doesn't spin around anyone.
It spins around me, my purpose, my vision, my fire.
Maybe that's why the ones with a higher calling often walk alone.
Because the wrong person can pull you down,
can drain you,
can ruin you,
and then leave when there's nothing left.
I'm tired of the same cycle.
Women talking about men.
Men talking about women.
Lives revolving around others instead of themselves.
I'm not like them.
I left that behind.
I left the noise, the distractions, the endless loops of dependency.
I chose to walk forward, alone if i must.
Because i'd rather walk alone with purpose,
than be surrounded and empty.
I don't live around people anymore.
I live around my mission.
And i'll keep walking,
while the rest keep spinning.
