Is this for real? I wake up in the morning and I like how I feel, I go to sleep at night not restless from ordeals, I look at myself and I like what I see, I'm comfortable with being alone with me. Is this for real, this newfound love? Is this for real, a gift from above? Is this for real, ask and you shall receive? Is this for real, I like being me? I know I can walk with my head held high, I'm someone to embrace with love and pride. I'm seeing a beauty I never saw before, It's inside me...who unlocked this door? I'm accepting compliments in the light they are given, Instead of looking intentions that might be hidden. I'm learning others like to spend time with me, They value my opinion and sincerity. I'm really a person just like you and your friends, I'm ready for my new life to begin, It's scary, the baby steps that I take each day, But the child in me is ready to play. No more shall someone control this person I found, All the feelings I had have already unwound. Those feeling are trashed, where they belong. The time I spent as that person is gone, The light at the end of the tunnel is so close, in sight. Instead of being a afraid, it brings me delight. The dreams I once had are all part of yesterday. I have new ones more deserving of who I am today. This is for real, this newfound love!!!! This is for real, a gift from above!!!!! This is for real, ask and you shall receive!!!! This is for real, I LOVE being me!!!!!
