FINDING MYSELF!

Finding myself again,
is harder than before.
I know who I am now,
but I always wanted more.

I'm my biggest critic.
I'm never good enough.
An ant in this cruel world.
No room to show my stuff.

A hermit to this place,
afraid to show my face.
Scared of what they'll think,
of a past I can't erase.

Won't settle for less than perfect,
when it comes to me.
Until then I hide,
my flaws they'll never see.

I am now a number,
no meaning in my name.
Making friends gets harder,
it'll never be the same.

The shell I thought I left behind,
finds me once again.
I'm so scared, don't wanna cry,
& so I crawl back in.

LOVE ELMO

Aaww we all have mistakes in our past.. We shouldn't live in the past or cos of misdeeds, we should make ammends, better ourselves and swear never to go there again.If you continuously try to be the best you can, soon enough those around you will see the change and realise it's for good....
Have patience, I know you'll get there, for I did!!!!! *hugs*

Self forgiveness is the most difficult thing. I could relate to this so much. I compliment you.

After years of searching, I have found I am nothing more, nothing less...I am in truth Just A Woman after all.

The past can either be your guide or your worst nightmare. Learning from your mistakes is the key. But often harder than it seems.
