Traces being left behind
With every step I take.
The once upon a time I knew
No difference does it make.
This process that I’m starting now
To build a whole new me.
Is lengthy and a painful one
And thats just plain to see.
Learn to walk and start anew
They call it baby steps.
This brand new life I’m thankful for
No longer will I fret.
I’ll always be the damaged girl
I can’t forget my past.
But I will learn to live more free
And appreciate life at last.
