I'm ready

Breaking out my shell
Facing the fears
Of my own hell
Been feeling beat down
But I'm ready to take a stance
And be someone different

I'm ready to heal
I'm ready to feel
I'm ready to accept the good
And get rid of the guilt
I'm ready for adventure
I'm ready to hold my head high
I'm ready to give into happiness
I'm ready to get rid of the madness

I'm ready to smile
Even though at times
I want to hide
Who would have thought this was me
Who would have thought I was living a lie
I was so used to giving into
The love that was causing me to die

So I'm ready to just get through
Do what I have to do
Dream my new life into existence
Just start living it on purpose

Author's Note

After something that happened to me recently I'm just ready to move on. I now can finally be who I am without any guilt and walking on eggshells. I am finally happy and smiling. Something I haven't done in a very long time.
