Growing Up

You never knew how much it hurts to grow up.
You never knew how much it hurts when you hurt me with your words.
You thought it's funny but it's not.
Growing up it a painful journey as it consists of pain and bitterness.
But I had outgrow the pain and bitterness you gave to me.
I'm here for whom am I is because the past I had.
I'm strong today as I was hurt so badly last time.
I learned to stay strong and to be brave for MYSELF.

My painful journal is what not understood by you.
But it is what built me today.
