I now understand


I understand now what I never knew This life is journey I know that to be true A battle of survival to the finish line Telling ourselves it will always be fine I learned its okay not to be okay And its okay not to be a child and play We are all just learning about what is right Looking for the most positive light I've grown and learned to never give up And that I'm finally a grownup I've learned I can be my own light I learned that this is my fight I am stronger than I ever thought Now I'm tougher then I ever fought
