Finding myself in Runaway Train

When I got lost and let the darkness take over me I thought I was broken. I thought I was damaged when tears came out of my eyes, I thought I was weak when I’d let myself feel. I thought it was wrong to be sad. Everyone had always taught me to be happy, but this time I couldn’t be happy. I had changed so much, I had fallen so many times. I had been lost, afraid to stay this way forever. I forgot what it meant to be happy. I forgot what used to make me smile. I forgot my laugh and my dreams. Isolating myself from a world, I thought wanted to see me fail. Through all the pain and darkness, I found myself, and every day I remind myself I belong in this world. I’m worthy to live this life and even though I keep falling down, I know I’ll get back up, because I’m strong, no matter how many times people break me, I’ll rise up as a survivor ready to succeed
