I can't believe how much this year has changed me, for better or for worse
At the beginning of the year, I felt nothing but sadness and anger
But now, it's a distant memory
Some would say that I'm holding onto something that I should let go of
But I chose to think of it a different way
It's a story
The story of how I've grown
I've experienced heartbreak, anger, and frustration
But I managed to make it through that
Normally when I would have relied on others
I learned to make it through myself
I built myself up
I made myself stronger
There might still be pieces of me that are broken
I might still hide parts of me away
But I'm learning
Slowly but surely I'm learning
I'm stronger than I've ever been
I've tried relying on people before and I discovered how much that leaves you vulnerable
I would love to say that I can trust everyone know
But I'm still working on that
I guess I should say it like this
There are some people you can trust, and others that will leave you in the dust
They might not give an explanation to why they left, but they might leave
It's up to you to figure out who you trust
And for me, I'm still looking
But as I said, I'm stronger than I've ever been
I might still have dark points in my life
But I think I can get through them now
And so can you
