Because sometimes a normal blog just won't cut it:
Maybe these moments
of struggle and sting
are building me up inside.
I’m fighting for something
different now,
a world where I need not hide.
The truth is, I’ve changed
and I cannot pretend
that I am who I once was.
I will no longer model my life
and behavior the way
everyone else does.
But maybe this new girl emerging
won’t really be all that bad.
True, for now I’m still broken,
scared, beaten down,
and earnestly mad.
Take me for what I am,
because I have nothing else to give.
It’s my turn
to figure out what it feels like
to completely and honestly live.
Oh, the future seems so far
and I cannot fathom
what it holds.
Yet I’m impatiently waiting
to see the uncertains,
the dreams,
and the untolds.
