meet goosey

hello, i'm goosey. i'm 17 and i've been in treatment for about 8 months now. right now poetry is my outlet. here are some recent thoughts...

since i've been here i've opened up my eyes to see the problems that i need to fix.
everyday is either a good day or a struggle.
but at the end of my day it has come out to be a good one.
it's hard to be away from your family and loved ones,
but it's even harder to know that i hurt people i love.
for the past 8 months i have fallen and then gotten back up.
each time is a new experience.
i've become either weak or strong but i am a mixture of both.
i think about the things that i need to improve upon and the things that are just there.
i think about my family and friends daily.
i sit in class thinking about the old days of events that have taken place.
i talk to my peers about those events and tell them that i am going to change.
i am changing to become somone new and improved
and i want everyone to know that the old me is no longer me.
i am becoming a young woman with a story to tell.
