I'll be free

I usually find it hard,

To accept compliments given to me,

Who was once so very scarred,

Finally, now, feels so very free.

What is this happy feeling,

That is making me feel very cheerful?

Am I finally dealing,

With what was once making me so fearful?

I still repeat the things you said,

In my head, of which each comment resides,

Maybe I will never dread,

I hope you're the emotion that presides.

Thank you for your thoughtful texts,

Oh, have I found someone who may save me?

Kindness makes me so perplexed,

But, assure me that one day I'll be free.
