The Glow Up


I used to sit at 

home, breathing all alone then 

one day i changed, it 

 

was never the same.

I realized I was closed to

the world that always 

 

shows, the many ways 

of hope. I began to change 

my attititude, in 

 

a similar way

of gratititude, no longer 

in vain of my life. 

 

Through it all i saw 

the light, oh how it shined so

bright. I then moved to 

 

my name and gave it 

a push to make it a change 

and flourish one day

 

As time went on, so 

did my appearance almost 

as well as all of 

 

my experience 

and my image has changed. To

this day, I like to 

 

keep going and move 

up, up, and away to make

an improvement for 

 

every single day.
