Starting Over
<>
I allowed strangers to see my pain.
I cried tears while those pages were created.
I did not think about who would be hurt.
No one cared about how I felt.
I wrote my book to free me from my past.
Closing the chapters once and for all.
I put my heart and soul on the line.
I cried over the past one last time.
I know I hurt some people bad.
Like I had turned around and slapped them hard.
But please keep in mind
A child sees things differently.
And now you see what my life was really like.
I hope we can move pass this and over come.
As we start a new chapter from page one.
