Childhood
It started when i was 7 years old
grew up in a world so lost and cold
taking care of myself, while being so young
was hard and scary and nowhere near fun.
But i conquered the struggles
fought through the pain
realized i can let go of the blame.
It was never my fault
the things my parents did
I could do nothing
I was only a kid.
My hearts still hurting
as a tear drips down my cheek
I know i can do this
I'm no longer weak.
It's all made me stronger
I'm facing my fears
No longer alone, cuz i know people care.
I can be independent, stand on my own
know my strengths, and where i belong.
I learnt to love myself, and give it my all
I pick myself up
whenever i fall....
