Gold-My Own Hero

Come see me,
I'm turning into the person I was meant to be.

In the past,
I was pulled this way and that.

Finally,
I've decided to fight back.

After sleepless nights,
Along with worrisome fights.

After days of pulled-out hair,
closets where I lived in fear.

After people holding on, but not letting go.
I am MORE than ready to be my own hero.

My poor body and my poor mind,
Slowly repairing.
With the help of time.

So I'll shed this blight!

ALL the people!

Plus their dead weight!

For in my own way,
I'm making a path!
For this day and everyday.

Hopefully now,
you'll be able to see,
The person that I was meant to be.

Come and see.

    This is such a positive piece of writing and carries the conviction of feeling and purpose. I didn't find the capitals in MORE and ALL were necessary as they seemed to take away from the flow and I think the words are strong enough without them but that is just personal opinion. I really like the way you began and ended the poem. Good luck in the contest.
