My choices
not theirs
not the ones I was scared into making
when I did not know better
My capabilities
not theirs
the ones that I have developed
and know how to implement
My confidence
not theirs
not limited to merely surviving the times
but allowing myself to grow
I am not them
not anymore
the three C’s will guide me past the obstacles
they created for me when I was younger
because I now know
who and what I am
