This new year feels like

the first year,

where my self-confidence isn't

drowning below sea level.

Even though I remember all

the hurt he put on me,

I'm not going to feel it,

today or ever.

Nobody's going to recognize me

when I'm done here,

because I'm going to change

in ways that nobody understands.

I'm correcting my book to fit me,

so they'll have to read me again.
