I'm Growing


Fighting this world

with "friends" and foes included.

Abused and lost, 

looking for an out

trying to make parents proud.

Losing hope with every breathe.

I will fight, after all

I haven't come this far,

for only this. 

I am more than what he 

did to me. 

I am me, I am worthy.
