My former lover and others

I am 100 times stronger than he will ever be

I am amazing

I can stare mental illness in its face

And not run away from the painful truth

Everyone who hit me, called me names, or doubted me 

You will never have this strengh

I can brave the waves for others and myself

I can become a school psychologist

I can help others

To my haters I’ll say:

I am amazing and that’s all I’ll be telling myself today
