When I was thirteen I laid a blanket on the dewy grass of my front yard I sat down And I cried. I cried because I thought I was nothing. Because life consisted of mostly misery. My arms were covered in scratches My body was begging for food They told me I was nothing more than a girl. Nothing more than damaged goods. I believed them. Now I am seventeen. I laid a different blanket down on the same dewy grass in my front yard And I smiled. It has been 143 days since a razor blade touched my skin. My body is full of chocolatebecause my best friend took me out to dinner tonight. I graduated high school early. My second year of college starts in 26 days. I start my new job on Monday. (I’ve always wanted to be a barista.) My internship is going well. I know now that I am not damaged goods. A lot can change in four years.
