In the Back Seat

The Show of a Lifetime.

Now you have seen all of me.
You have seen my life through my eyes
So now you know that I've tried
To make things ok

Now you have seen me at my best and my worst
How I put all my friends and my family first
And never regretting my decisions in doing so
And now you have seen my worth the way I see it
And I'm not ashamed not one bit

I have told you
Shown you how I got my scars
From the back seat of my mothers car
And seen how far I've gotten
And how much further I can go
There is no taking it slow
Not with me
Not with someone who had to grow up faster than everyone else
Having to fight myself for wanting to say
"I love myself" and "I need help"
I earned my shit

You have seen my smile
My tears
My heart being shattered
All my dreams and my fears
Now all that's left is to look forward to the next few years
And show the world what I can do
All thanks to me, myself and I
And all of you too.

I'll see you soon.

P.S: thank y'all so much for reading this poetry book. Doing something like this is definitely out of my comfort zone because I don't really talk about myself or my life and I was willing enough to show my heart and be vulnerable and you guys embraced it and felt my pain. My trauma. My sorrows. And it made me feel like I wasn't fighting this alone. Thank you so much.
