And just like that I turn 22
Yet a month ago I didn't think I was going to see this year through
Coming to terms with my own mortality
I never thought this would be my reality
But here I am now, still alive
Years of pain I'd never thought I'd survive
Though the pain may never truly fade away
I'm glad I get to live to see another day
This was tough for me to write, I had a slight panic attack last week because about 2 months ago I wanted to take my own life and now I'm 22 years old, Im literally crying writing this, all I can say is I'm so happy I'm still here
