Within A Year

by Samantha Lowe - Scorpio

Within a year, my life has fallen
Taken on new meaning
I've grown, matured, overcome
Still fighting the battle life has given to me to bleed
I will never give up
Never give in
Never show my weaknesses
For I've survived for too long.
I have put up defenses
I have knocked them down
I have gone on walking through danger signs and one way roads
Telling me to go back
I don't belong
There's hell up ahead
Yet I've held strong. 
Been through heaven and hell trying to find myself
Open up the doors I've kept locked
Been locked for too long
Broke through the shell holding me back
Learned to fly despite having no wings
Saw myself in tears, then mopped them up
Too much time had been wasted til now.
