I Am Mine

Breathe

I longed to fit in but felt so small,

Unseen and ignored by all.

Throughout my life, I walked alone,

Creating a heart-like stone.

But time revealed a truth so bright:

Self-love should be my guiding light.

Regret, though real, could not outshine

The joy of realizing, "I am mine."
