All my life I've suffered, hated myself for being what people perceived me to be, stupid, naive, slow
And I believed them and I also believed that something was wrong with me
Something broken with me beyond hope
I thought I was a terrible person
But especially last year and this year, I've realised I'm so much more
I realise that I'm actually a sweet, honest, empathic, kind-hearted person who deeply cares about her friends
I feel like I grew and will continue growing
I feel like white wings with flecks of ashy darkness to represent the many scars of my life, my story, grew out of my back
Ascending me higher and higher into the sky, stardust trailing behind me
Leading me to the path of my self discoveryI am strong.
I am brave.
I am a perfectly imperfect crying, emotional mess.
I am at peace with myself with all my imperfections and brokenness and all.
