It is never too late to return to yourself
and start fighting back to renovate your life.
I looked in the mirror,
disgusted and disappointed
in what I had become,
suddenly,
a button was pushed inside my soul.
I now know the answer
of how to restart my life,
without leaving through the back door.
To find what I need
in a world of losing hope,
I first have to find
the shell of what I was,
then make us both believe
that we can be a shining star again.
I have to bravely take hold of my past,
all of the hurt and pain,
and throw it all away in the garbage can,
burning the whole lot to ashes.
I looked in the mirror,
realising I was not living my life how it should be,
and within that moment of reflection,
my soul was breaking free -
free as a butterfly.
It is never too late to reclaim your life
and renovate your soul.
I look in my mirror,
I can see my future now.
I will keep the darkness behind me,
for behind me it will not define me,
it will simply help me
shine brighter than ever before.
