scared of the unknown

mental health

stepping into the big wide world
not really ready
never been able to live a normal life
self harm has been a big part
and being locked up from a young age
how are you ready for the world
you don’t know that your future 
could be bright
and that the bad start 
was just the start
there so much more to life 
dont worry about you scares 
you big enough 
but your brain might feel
as if your still a child
or living in your past 
your pain is a part of your life
it makes you who you are 
go out there concur it yourself 
you will get there one day
that day will come when your ready 
and your be the only person who will know
