My Future Self

Reflecting on the miles, I've traveled so far
I've walked through shadows, and wiped away scars
I'm not the same soul, I used to be
Time has taught me, to let go and be free
I'm still a work in progress, with flaws so dear
But with each step forward, I dry my tears
Life's journey unfolds, like a morning dew
And I'm slowly becoming, the person I'm meant to do
I'm finding my way, through the dark and the light
And embracing the beauty, of this endless night
