Chapter 74: I kinda like who I am

a journey in my own skinWords: 805

I kinda like who I am,

Not the person I thought I'd be,

But the one who stands here now,

Free in a way I never thought I'd see.

I'm not perfect, not flawless,

I've got cracks that show,

But in those very breaks, I've found

A strength I didn't know.

I like the way I think,

The way I love, the way I grow,

The way I laugh, the way I dream,

Even when the world moves slow.

I like the scars that tell my story,

The quiet moments, the subtle glory,

I like the heart that loves so deep,

And the peace I've learned to keep.

I've learned to embrace the truth inside,

The one who's been here all along,

I kinda like who I am now,

Even if I wasn't the one who thought it was wrong.

I'm not perfect, and that's okay,

I'm finding myself in my own way.

And in the end, I'll stand and say,

I kinda like who I am today.
