Breaking Free

My life these days feels like it's not mine
Because everyday I fight battles that are not mine
But through the pain, I still shine -
For I am a dime.

I keep praying for light and for my things to align.
Why is it taking so much time?
Why does it feel like wanting to be happy is a crime?
But I try to be hopeful and wait for a sign.
I know one day it's all going to be fine.

I'm going to be happy.
I'm going to be free.
I'm going to let go.
I'm going to be the old me.
