I was so scared,

How would the world accept me,

When I had been so tainted,

So flawed, and it always came back,

To the same regret and shame,

And then I had to remind myself,

The mistakes we’re meant to make,

However big or small they may be,

To give me solace and peace,

When I had felt so alienated, alone,

I had to accept that forgiveness,

Was something hard for most,

And the wrong I’d done,

Though I was remorseful,

I would have to be grateful,

That at least, I can live with the fact,

That I’m not pathetic and worthless,

As their words tell me.
