I'M On My Own Now Poem by Kellsey Hartmann

I'm on my own now
away from family
making new friends
slowly but surely

I'm on my own now
my future is mine
I take care of me
and manage my own time

I'm on my own now
no one to care for me
this is the time
where I determine who I'll be

I'm on my own now
no one to tell me what to do
no one to hold me close
with a caring 'I love you'

I'm on my own now
no one to cry to
no one to blame
or tell me what to do

I'm on my own now
with freedom before me
and responsibility entirely
so now I'm starting to see

I'm on my own now
I can do it
I know I can
I know I have it

I'm on my own now
it's a breath of fresh air
a wake up call
now I have to care

I'm on my own
and I know I can make it...
