Making Changes

I've made mistakes, many times.
I've been use, abused, and accused of crimes.
I've been in pain, damaged, and pushed around
I'm misunderstood, neglected, and been let down.

This world is unexpected, misdirected.
There's no respect, always rejected.
Now, I'm changing, starting anew,
And enjoying all angles of the view.

I will soon enjoy living, after picking up all the pieces,
filling in the holes of anger my heart releases.
Never allowing myself to fade,
hitting life head on, no longer afraid.

I'm making alterations,
no more hesitation,
through the duration, allowing myself to see,
the world, your love, and what I can be.

Allowing myself to smile, heal, and grow,
I've learned a lot, but much still to go.
By repairing my heart, I've created a foundation
for happiness and love will soon become my inspiration.
