Beaten down,
Bruised and scarred,
Bleeding,
Almost lifeless.
Life is that tough.
It challenges me every time
Making me look weak
Hurting me badly
Giving me unbearable pains.
But I have managed to stand up
And say,
"Enough!
I deserve to be happy too"
I learned how to be strong
Courage is what I found
Fought back
And continuously fighting
Struggling for my life
Surviving not just for myself
But for the ones I love.
I became a fighter,
I become a better me.
I see life in a new perspective
My path lighten up          
Escaped from the darkness.
My smiles are now becoming geniune
Saying goodbye to fake smiles;
My heart is beating lively
Filled with love and hope;
Shedding tears of joy
And no longer crying from pain.
I became a better one
Because I made a choice
To replace negative thoughts
With positive ones,
To end up my misery  
By choosing to be merry,
To stop being melancholic
And become a blithe one,
To throw away the anger and sadness
And start filling myself with love and happiness.
