Better Version of Me
Battered and alone
Frightened and lil scared
For what tomorrow may bring
Fighting every day
To get through the haze
Of the yesteryears dark pain
What have I become
Feeling abandoned
This vicious cycle must stop
For help I must reach
Before falling deep
A Better Version of me
I must become this
My kids can’t suffer
The loss of their mom would devastate
For I’m not trying
To be anything
Other than a better me
