Things don't always go
the way they really should,
I wanted to be loved,
but most of all...understood

Never in my life

Did I ever know

That I will have to bear the brunt

Of holding on to myself

It must be the path
that I've chosen to take,
for the life I have now
could not be a mistake.

For once in my life
I'm happy I'm me,
no longer yearning
to set my soul free.

Days are again like

the morning flower

Just waiting to blossom

with the first sunlight.

And I want to fly high

With no one to hold me back

And bring the brightness back

With all I really wanted in my life
