Current life status

I was always known as the dull child

I had this weird aura surrounding me

Which led to people leaving me

I got so used to it,that,

Never did I ever thought that

I could be genuinely happy

I settled for things

I discarded my emotions for others

I belittled myself

Just because I was afraid of getting abandoned

But, if there's something I learned in life

It's that selflessness and the cruel world don't go well together

So it's better to let go of some things

I left everything holding me back

And the biggest flex about that is,

I get compliments about how happier I've become
