my life has changed drastically over the past year.
I've lost a few good friends,
made a couple more.
I ruined those who only showed me love and kindness.
To all those I've hurt, I only hope that you forgive as I've been trying my hardest to become a better person.
Throughout this time I've experienced a lot,
more than a girl my age should.
I've experienced the worst of heartbreaks,
each giving me a new reason to find better.
To those who have showed me how to actually appreciate what I have before it's too late, I thank you.
This time last year I had no idea how badly things would turn out.
I thought having fun meant partying almost everyday.
The more I gave into temptations, the more I let go of my true self.
It took time to get to where I am.
It took courage to face each day,
only hoping to see a brighter future.
I'm finally happy with who I've become, how much I've changed.
I've grown up and started to realize there's more to life than I thought.
I know now that I have found my true self.
I know now that absolutely nothing can break me.
I know now that I'm strong enough to defeat and overcome my problems.
I no longer am the wild teenage girl that you once knew.
I only hope that everyone can see that, I'm not who I once was.
(This isn't my best work but I've just been thinking about how much my life has changed in such a short period of time. Just know that if you ever go through something, you can always bring yourself back up. Push yourself to become the person you know you want to be. Never give up on yourself.)
