Change. It isn't that hard.

I don't want this.
I made mistakes.
I am human.
I am only wanting,
a second chance

I am a new man here
A new soul
A fresh slate

A blank canvas

A malleable metal

What more.

Can't you judge me for yourself?
What  silliness,
Can't you see beyond the veil?

Truth be told
I have told lies
But
Is it truthfully told
That my lies were lies?

I will let you all see that I have changed. 

That I have severed the ties with my past.
That I have risen beyond the likes of scum.
That I have seen the error of my ways
That maybe one day I can say one of the hardest words

Sorry.
Sorry for all the things I have done
Sorry for all the hearts I kept
Sorry for all the lies I told
Sorry for who I was
Sorry Ya-Allah
Sorry.

A shoutout

A dedication

A point to change

A promise to myself
