WALK INTO YOUR FATE

 

It’s always been a dream

That one day I would write

The tale end of last year

I started my own site

 

I finally realized

What was to be the key

I finally realized

That the key had to be me

 

Maybe I won’t be big

Or ever become well known

But the outpouring of support

That I have already been shown

 

Has truly changed my life

And is more than I dreamed of

Never been so happy

To do something that I love

 

I found out I was what

Was standing in my way

So grateful I decided

To start my blog that day

 

I’m living my own dream

And know dreams can come true

All you really need

Is to have confidence in you

 

I was just so scared

I had to get past my fear

Now my life has meaning

And my outlook is so clear

 

It took me half my life

To get me to this place

I’m never turning back

This new life I will embrace

 

Thanks for believing in me

Even when I couldn’t

I was my biggest obstacle

Telling myself I shouldn’t

 

I might not have pushed through

I was running from my trauma

But running away from it

Was just causing me more drama

 

Now I use my writing

To process all my pain

And because of all of this

I’m able to attain

 

My dream, now my actuality

It almost seems surreal

I was terrified of my emotions

But I'm no longer scared to feel

 

So thankful that I finally

Had a moment of clarity

That led me from my dreams

Into my new reality

 

Old dreams, or new

It will never be too late

Get out of your own way

And walk into your fate
