Nov 2016
Life is easier and it is harder.
I now have knowledge of myself and can breathe again.
I walk outside and fill my air with lungs and I feel clean.
I feel new.
The world is me, but I am not the world.
I control myself but I do not control others.
I can still breathe.
Asking for what I want is not a crime,
Nor is it a crime when people do not follow through.
The world is me, but I am not the world.
I control my life but I do not control theirs.
I am new, but I am not perfect.
I still have problems, but that is okay.
I am better and I am striving to be better.
I am whole but I still have cracks beneath the surface.
That is okay.
I am okay.
