The future me

The girl I used to be, I can no longer see. The drugs, the pain, it all went away, away with the rain. The beatings and feelings, made me feel so alone. Sex for drugs, Actions of a thug, But would you believe, I was still loved? Graduating high school, Never thought I could. Told myself my dreams, are no longer deferred. Listened to the wise, and guess what? surprise, I made it to college, before the sun rise. A life to plan, sign my name in the sand. Husband and wife, I'm actually starting life. Baby girl or boy, What will be their first toy? Happiness at the quick, I never thought the talk, would stick. Life of hell, Thought I was living in a cell. But I woke up one day, and I fell. Fell for happiness, Success, The things that I do; Best. Being me, The future me.
