You Don't Own Me.

Dear 2010, 
Remember when I felt so down, and you pulled me into the shadows just to watch me drown? You carried me up and down till you made me sick.  You pushed my thoughts into your depths while you continued on, playing with me to see how crazy you could make me.  You almost had me. You almost took my life, but I found the strength to rid my life of the pain you were causing me and the hurt that continually brewed inside of me.  I rid myself of you for good, and now there is nothing holding me to you. I'm never looking back, and you will never catch up to me.  I will forever be held higher than you, out of your reach in a place of freedom and light.  Continually growing and improving forever with no end.  No darkness in my life anymore, no more sleepless nights.  I have forever broken the chains that bound me to your pull, and I am flying away to my dreams and hopes.  Peace, joy, and love will forever reign around me, carrying me through life from here on out.  Goodbye 2010, I have a whole new life and you are never going to bring me down again. You don't own me.
~Summer

  13. um WOW! i'm blown away by this, you are some kind of articulate and poetic writer. such a harmony of exposure here. thank you for sharing these extremely personal and deep thoughts. good for you on writing them out, i find it always helps with closure and when the circumstances can't give you the validation you need it's also a great way to get it for yourself! way to go lades, it's impressed upon me a very intense sense of admiration. ♥
