I am not anymore 

I am not the one you knew

I changed so much

I mean, life changed me

After everything I've been through

Who would not?

I died a thousand deaths

And lived a thousand lives

To become the one I am today


If all the dreams I had somehow died

All my expectations

And the plans I had for my future

They all died with a part of me

It is time to grieve

And let place for who I am now

Dead and reborn


I am sorry for my loss

But I can't be who I was anymore

I have to let her go

And tell her goodbye

Face the one I became

Who life made of me

I believe that all of them

All the versions of me

We look at each other

Proud of each other


Maybe it is all me

It's all mine

I own who I was

And who I am

And the change you fear

I embrace with wide arms

It is my strength


To my past I say

Rest in peace

Bittersweet youth

You were not the best years of my life

You were not innocent and blissful

Like many could think

We are not the same

I have given my everything

Just to make it out alive

Even when it killed me

Over and over again

It might be nothing to you

But it took all of me


To my youth I say

Thank you, next

Thank you for surviving

Thank you for going through the worst

And taking me where I needed to be

Thank you for never giving up on us

No matter how hard life was

Here I am,

Undefeated

It is my victory

I've reached my final form


So let's mourn this girl

This young woman

Who carried me here

Who died so that I could live

Who fell so that I could stand

Who suffered so that I could heal

Who faded so that I could bloom

The rose I have become

Has grown from her tears and blood


Rest in peace
