I am not a failure, I can get to the other side.
Push through all of this negativity and stop trying to hide.
None of this my fault, I didn’t ask to become ill.
Everything is so toxic, I have succumbed to your will.

I am worthy of love and deserve to be admired.
No longer trapped in a life of shame, after everything that has transpired.
I hold the key to my own happiness, if I am just willing to try.
I need to dig deep and fucking bring it, before life passes me by.

The world isn’t out to get me, it is there for taking.
I need to invest in myself and do all of the reshaping.
I am broken, my shields are down but I feel a spark is still there.
Perhaps I can reignite the fire, even in the depths of despair.
