I think-
I think it's finally time.
It's been about 18 months now,
and I think I'm finally ready.
It's time to let go of the past,
time to let old wounds heal
and these scars have finally begun to fade.
Time to let go.
Of all the resentment that I carry,
of all my worries,
of the love that was never meant to be
and the doubts that follow me.
I'm happy where I am,
bit's time for a proper change.
I'm not the person I want to be,
but I'm on my way.
Sometimes I just need a little reminder
that things are okay.
My trauma still haunts me,
but I'm getting better at not letting it be in control.
Maybe now I'll have a real chance.
To be who I want to become,
to have a proper shot at love
and to accomplish all my goals.
I let myself wallow
for almost a year.
Now I know for sure who I am
I got my closure.
Time to move on,
to a newer, better chapter.
