I don’t know why it
took so long
I’ve had this skin
for years
It took a lot of
living
To get past these
doubts and fears
So many loves and
losses
Most lessons have a
cost
Every wrinkle tells a
story
Of something loved
and lost
Struggling with
self-confidence
And little self-esteem
Believed a life of
happiness
Was just a fading
dream
Then somewhere on this
winding path
I made a subtle turn
Those lessons came
together
And showed me what I’d
learned
Stopped caring what
the world thought
Started trusting in
myself
Left those doubts
that strangled me
In darkness on a
shelf
Beside the things
that held me back
Enabling me to be
Comfortable inside
this skin
Like I was meant to
be
