Pasts Goodbye

I feel the old me dying with every step I take,
no longer the girl scared of my own shadow or choices I make.
I see things with a clear new perception,
and am no longer unsure of my direction.
Remembering who I am, makes me wonder how I'd ever gotten lost,
I fell in love for the first time and was willing to pay any costs..
And I did, hopes, dreams, ambition
To my family I was beyond recognition.
I was dead inside
trapped alone with my thoughts, I did hide.
Here I sit now with the sweetest smile,
I'm finally back, just lost myself while.
The mountains I've climbed and it now seems so small
I'm only five feet but feel soo tall.
Just happy to have this me back
no more bruises, no more black.
There will be more obstacles in life I'm sure
But now..I have a better understanding than ever before.
