I'm Gonna Do This Right.

by Autumn   Nov 23, 2008


I wake up, it is morning
The sun shining through my window
in a blue clouded sky
opening my eyes, seeing my realizations
for the very first time.
Loving every minute of this life,
even through its hard sometimes.
I jump out of bed, and walk down the hall.
I face my fears with no tears at all,
cause I know I'm getting stronger everyday,
because I've learned from my mistakes.
I love myself for who I am,
fighting the temptation to slip up once again.
Cause I know people love and care about me,
and everyone just wants to see me smiling.
I get dressed, feeling a little dizzy on my feet,
cause my head is spinning, and I'm trying to make
the right choice.
Then I realize, I shouldn't care what other people think
I'm just me, and that's what I'll always be,
so now I just put on whatever clothes I have,
cause I know it won't really matter in the end.
My make-up has lessened over the past year,
I'm not that same girl I used to be, I'm finally happy,
and love what I've got.
And there is nothing I would want to change about myself.
I know I wouldn't have gotten here if it wasn't for
the people that talked things out with me. Told me to have faith and stay strong, and hope that tomorrow will be a better day. They were always right in the end.
But as the sunlight fades away, giving someone else a brand new day. I go to sleep, and realize it's my responsibility, to get where I want to go, get the best out of life, even if I have to take my time, I'm gonna do this right.
