Evolving

i write stories
about my pain
using that as a
way to escape
my low in order
to reach my highest point,
everyday i was
hungry for success
but procrastination was
added on with stress,
imagine living life being
depressed all the time
with nothing but suicide
on your mind;
my selfishness was mistaken
by pride,
but look at me now,
ending up on the 
other side of life,
everyday i wake up
with a purpose
no longer questioning my worth
or relying on support
from others,
it was my struggle
which i turned into success;
worrying less or being concerned
about the next
