I Found Me

My life isn’t all that bitter

My life isn’t always sweet

Reminded of this daily

So much that I miss sleep

 

My life isn’t all together

My life isn’t how I want it to be

Tumbling down in pieces

This is what I see

 

What I wanted I did not get

But surprising I got what I need

Lost some friends along the way

Yet I’m no longer surrounded by deceit

Learned a few good lessons

Missed a few heartbeats

Had my feelings completely shattered

But despite my struggles I still stand on two feet

 

My life isn’t all that bitter

My life isn’t always sweet

But I have learned along the way

I learned who I am and who I want to be

 

My life isn’t all together

My life isn’t how I want it to be

But I learned that there is a way to change that

And the change starts with me

 

Never always received what I wanted

But received what I so need

Learned the true meaning of friendship

Gained a higher self-esteem

Had my heart broken

But realized things can be fixed if they break

Learned the biggest lesson of all

Which is if I fall I shouldn’t be ashamed

 

My life isn’t all that period

But my life is all about me

And the times it totally fell apart

Were the times I found me

 

“The crazy thing about life is the moment we think things are falling absolutely apart, things are actually coming together.” –Monica Renata
