I am from a beautiful disaster I like to call life,
its perfectly imperfect.
I am from finding myself through being me,
being free.
I am from being completely oblivious to all the blessings in the little things.
I am from never noticing the world around me.
I am from the love and support that has been provided my whole life.
I am from a broke childhood and growing up alone.
I am from something else always being more important,
and never being good enough.
I'm from forgiveness,
my father broke my heart before anyone had a chance to,
and a distant mother who doesn't know any expression.
I am from not knowing.
I'm from no sense of gratitude or obligation.
I am from providing myself with everything I have,
all the support I will ever need,
and not depending on anyone but myself.
My life is full.
I am finally free,
I am ME.
You are an amazing old soul, Ashley, and it comes across in your poetry. Sounds to me like you've learned more lessons in your life so far that many of us take years to realize. You are free; you are independent; and you know who you are. That is so much to be proud of, though it isn't easy. Beautiful poem. Thanks!
