2016

Anger, ignorance, love, and fear

are obstacles that I faced all of last year.

I struggled to accept things for the way they were

I struggled to find my worth

I struggled with self control and depression

Unfortunate mishaps in my year's confession

I struggled to let go of the past

But sometimes the greatest of things donot last.

I was tested this year, to overcome pure madness

Lessons learned that will help me avoid sadness.

Songs by Kehlani also helped me along the way,

lyrics in my mind that will never fade away

I learned that when the tide get high you just get low

and that you should just hold your breath, take it slow

Yes, you might get wet. You might get thrown,

but you will and you can resurface all on your own.

It's amazing how one emotion will dictate the rest 

You can rise above, but it's the ultimate test

I am taught through this year that I can overcome all

Because, I overcame all.

Anger..Fear..Ignorance..and Heartbreak.
