Poetry Corner

I have been writing a poem basically about my journey, its a work in progress, but I figured I would share what I have.

Looking straight in the mirror, what do I see
Disappointment reflecting back at me
Step on the scale, watch the numbers go
Too scared to look at what it will show
How did let myself get to this place
Every opportunity gone to waste
Things get tough, I give up
Things get rough, I give up
A cycle, leading to one thing
DEATH!!!!
Early 20's taking my last breath
The road I was on, that outcome was certain
No other choice but to pull back the curtain
Had to decide what it will be
Making this decision just for me
Under the knife I went, the journey starts
The right choice, I'm hoping in my heart
Months later and struggles continue
But this time progress is on the menu
No matter how hard things get, I made a promise to myself
To right all my wrongs and better my health
So cheers to life and a better me
One day at a time my goal will be reached
