Great reminders for you to read aloud.
Reminders that gives me a perspective on where I am now.
I know where I stand, I know what has happened to me.
I am letting it go and I tell my past to leave.
This is a new start, a new chapter in my life.
It is time to write what I could not say before as I silenced my cries.
I am strong, I am kind.
I am who I am.
I will become the person I have been waiting to find.
