Right now

Right now I’m at peace
Right now I’m happy about how everything is
Letting go of you was the best thing I did for myself 
It’s so easy to smile
I enjoy the day and I barely have anything negative to say
It took a lot to get where I am right now 
I use to pray for better days 
For God to take the pain away
It took so long to find my worth and to remember what I deserve 
It took forever for me to see myself through my own lens and not yours
It’s my decision to figure out what I deserve 
It took so long to get to this place 
I was so afraid of being alone 
I was so scared of the unknown 
Right now I’m embracing being alone
I’m ready and inviting the unknown 
Right now the sun is shining brightly 
Being far away from you is where I want to be
Im happy and I’m at peace
