It's scary and exciting Memories were built Then collapsed in an instant One too many comments One too many blows One too many moments of self-doubt It's time to leave and begin a new A new self-love And self-care Knowing I deserve a better life Then the one I would have faithfully settled for That would have ended my self-esteem And self-worth This is not the end But a new beginning Of self discovery And healing for a better And fulfilling future Of my own making
