New Me
A year of learning
some loving, some sorrow
I yearned for college
like there was no tomorrow;
A year of love
heartbreaks and pain,
but then I met you
and I was not afraid to feel again.
A silver lining I found in college,
in the first semester I gained experience and knowledge.
If I knew then what I know now,
my dreams become less how and more when.
Changing and metamorphasizing,
I grew and grew.
The me I am now is not the same girl you knew.
I'm stronger than you think, and smarter than you thought,
a little, ignorant girl I am not.
I know so much now and life moves with ease,
I know that who I am now is sure to please.
Thank you for the lessons,
though some were hard and full of pain,
in the end it was for the better,
because I truly have gained.
