 A New Woman

I'm sick of being viewed as perfect
Girl got keratoconus and astigmatism
Bullied most of childhood
Blepharitis hit me
Gbh and epilepsy
Im strong enough to live my life
Ibs hit me and I just live life
My skin hangs loose, but being near death
Taking them steroids fighting for my life
I was there living my dad's final days
I felt suicidal and depressed as a teenager
So misunderstood I had a long journey to learn to love me
Now I see my skin swaying and I know my journey
My heart is beautiful
I am fiery and I'm not perfect
Kind of guarded, but I been hurt so much I put barbed wiring around that damn guard
I don't let just anyone in
I'm still healing
25 years of abuse
Im still healing
So wait another year
Someday I'll kiss you like I never kissed before
Pros causes me overdrive
I will get to where I need to get to in life
It's worth living
I came so far
I'm proud of myself
I won't let anyone destroy anything of me
Life is worth living
Even if it means no soulmate
Celibate for 12 years I think I'll be okay
Life is worth living
