I Have Grown
I have grown.
I changed my name letting all my fears go.
Never want to revisit the past.
It would only entangle up bad thoughts.
To leave your youngest, your heart, your soul;
Disturbed, the heart starts to shatter and loose control.
Yet strength and faith is your only escape key.
Freedom is what I’m looking to hold.
With determination and assistance it’s only at the end of this road.
Time will heal the wounds.
Been waiting this all my life
My time has come and I’ve made my mark.
I know it’s hard but its time for a new start.
Mission accomplished and I’m free at last.
I must now share the experience with someone coming from my same class.

This is really great Janine. When I read this I get a feel for rhythm that doesn't quite match up with the way you've set up line breaks. I wonder how this would sound if you were to read this aloud. It also feels like the last line is a bit longish...I think eliminating the words "now" and "coming" from this line might help with the flow.
