It's been a long time since I've been able to stand up on my own. <br />I can finally uncover the mirrors and look at the person i've been avoiding for years. <br />It's been a long time since I said goodbye to the substances that replaced the family and friends in my life. <br />It feels good to say it's been a long time since I've fucked up. <br />I use to be so apologetic, Now I can't remember the last time I said i'm sorry. <br />Can't blame my mother for the way my life has turned out. <br />She did her best for a hopeless case. <br />For once in my life i'm doing a 180. <br />For once I can look in the mirror and love who I'm looking at. <br />For once I can truly be happy. <br /> <br /> It's been a long time<br /><br />Black on Black Arts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/defining-moment-3/
