Once more

To be trapped 

With people who hurt you is overwhelming

It is so difficult to fathom

How much I want to be far away 

And time is turning 

Where I'm becoming much stronger

And I long for the day

Of peace of mind

I retreat from silence

I am complete

But I, wish to be very far away

I can't compete with status 

And achievements

I am happy

No longer in the state of berievement

I will acknowledge the good times

And I will find solace

Among the bad times

I will survive

I'm not saintly at all

I will somehow thrive and flourish

Forget the pain of it all

I will survive

I will thrive

So onward my journey 

To a little comfort, I adore
