She Is Me;

She walks these streets from morning to night, with a confidence about her.
She would never admit it, because she doesn't want to come off as anything but different.
Indeed, she's unusual.
At the same time, she's charming and sweet.
Maybe, a little too forgiving.
She finds warmth in the hearts of others.
Broken heart from many, she disappears for a while.
Baby girl didn't even see it coming.
She danced with the devil every chance she could.
Just to stop.
Stop the pain, the tears, the caring, the worrying.
Nobody ever understands her.
She stands corrected, but she is set in her ways, with her strong beliefs.
Even though she created this mess, she never knew it.
She never knew it until life became unbearable.
It's always sucked...but on a particular day she woke up.
Woke up from the bad dreams and the past.
She's bandaged up and finally letting her wounds heal.
This time she's taking care of those wounds and turning them into scars.
These scars will be reminders of what was.
What she will now realize is that the present is what matters.
She will bring nothing but good to the table.
If she doesn't, she knows now that those wounds will open up before they can heal.
I think it's time for this girl to learn to fly.
She didn't know it before, but Mamma's here to teach her.

I'm so happy to have a second chance at life.
I hope I do it right.
I'm through with ******* everything up.
