I hate being like this, yet I choose to grow,
to let my heart guide me, to let my spirit flow.
Even when sadness whispers, I won’t let it stay,
I’ll welcome the sunlight to brighten my way.
I want to look happy, and I want to feel it too,
to find the small joys hidden in all I do.
I don’t yet know how, but I’ll learn day by day,
to weave new dreams and let the shadows fade away.
Step by step, I’ll rise, gentle and slow,
discovering the strength I’ve yet to know.
With each breath, each moment, I’ll claim my light,
and turn the darkest hours into soft twilight.
