I am what you have made me.
I was molded and folded into this materialistic monster.
It’s the brands, the money, the pride that got me.
Shallow, vain, easy. that’s what I’ve become.
and It’s not something that can be easily undone,
in fact, years of therapy still hasn’t changed a thing.  
What am i? Who am i? Where do i see myself going?
A future bored housewife? Is that all my reflection has become?
What happened to the girl that wanted to change the world?
What happened to the girl that was going to be something of herself?
She became lost.
She is a lot easier to bury than she is to find.
With a new pair of shoes or a new purse, day by day, she was able to go away.
Where is that girl now though?
Who would I have become if those actions were undone?
Don’t lose sight of yourself.
For then, you’re stuck with this dilemma, of who you are versus who you were.
They say people change, but shouldn’t they change for the better?
Shouldn’t each day you strive to be a better version of yourself?
Am I where I want to be?
No.
Am I who I thought I was going to be?
No.
But, is it too late to change?
No.
It’s never too late.
Each day is a new a chance,
a new chance to make strives and changes.
To look at what I became and move towards what I want to become.
So who am i now?
I am determined, I am motivated,
and I am free.
