Girl to Woman

When I look back I regret that.. 

I regret that I never took a step back, left the relationship I was in cause I was held back. I was kept in his shadow he was a ashamed of me. Even though he claimed he had everything he wanted in me. I was too blind to see, too scared to leave. I was scared of a broken heart and shattered dreams. I saw potential in him as my husband to be. I was too naive too understand he wasn't made for me. Too young to understand it was not meant to be. When I think back to just a year ago, I see a girl who was insecure because of other girls. I see a girl brain washed by social media, I see a girl looking for herself but she can't see her. It's been a year now and I'm a big girl.I have grown oh so much, I'm not the same girl. I took sometime to teach myself how to love me, and not to compare myself to girls I see on tv. I'm A big girl. No! I'm a woman now. I graduated from high school and I'm in college now. I'm a smart woman at a university and striving for success and chasing that degree.
