Break Free

Will I break free from my past?

Or will I let the chains tie me down?

For I have been  confided in a small room for hours trying to break free from this obstacle.

My mind is stuck ,but my heart is trying to break free.

The bars are too small and I cannot break through to the other side.

For the other side is where I want to  be.

Where I can be free from my past and not be weighed down by negativity.



But now I  realize I can slowly break free by saying this statement: I am beautiful just the way I am and don't need to change for anyone.
