The years go by
Flashes of my past
I had to grow up
Way too fast
I guess it's time
To tell you my tale
You may not see this
If I should fail
It started with dad
He left us alone
Just the 3 of us
All on our own
Mom started drinking
Not crazy, just fine
But as we got older
It became more than Wine
School was okay
But it slowly got worse
My issues started
Self Harm came first
Carved a heart
Into my wrist
A spot, I thought
Would never be kissed
Everything escalated
I tried to die
But one person
Convinced me to fight
You'll never see this
But I love you so
You've helped me out
Much more than you know
That's my story
I've been clean for a month
I'll continue to fight
And I'll keep having fun
