Memories flash before my eyes of the person I once was
Of a person who was fragile and hurt
Sitting with hollowed eyes in the corner of a room
That little girl has come a long way from who she once was
In the span of a year, she has transformed
And transcended the small cage she placed herself in
She was strong enough to overcome her adversities
She was strong enough to push away her demons
She was strong enough to come running out of her shell
She was strong enough to dance through her storms
She was strong
She came a long way
She worked day and night to better herself
To become a better version of herself
She allowed herself to feel the warmth of the sun kiss her skin
She allowed herself to smile and spin under the rain
She allowed herself to embrace who she was and own it all
She allowed herself to feel free
This little girl is proud of who she has become
She has battled through wars deep within her mind
She realized she was resilient
She won't let her scars define who she is
I am proud of who I have become
And one year from now I will be an even better version of myself
For I never let anything break me down
