I'Ve Made It This Far Poem by Ashley Dias

At 20 years, ive been through a lot
At times i've had one bad day after the other
Some i remember as if it was yesterday, some i forgot
Life is no fairytale ive learned, facing our fears is what makes us stonger

Ive beem through bad relationships and more
Bad things people say about me, i try to ignore
I have'nt had the best of friends
I am no saint, i wont pretend

Many times i felt like giving up
Felt like the whole world was against me
But thinking about it, i felt i needed to grow up
I needed to learn that life is not easy

I pray everyday that my life gets better than this
I pray that when i get older il still have someone to give me a good night kiss
Now that i think about it, in my little world, Im the star
And i thank God, that i made it this far
