I recently took a trip back to Devon-
A place I hold dear to my heart,
A place woven with fond memories.
I hoped to connect with the past,
And with the younger version of me-
The one I left behind a year ago.

As I retraced my steps 
Along the winding country lanes, 
Up and down the rolling hills,
I was overcome by nostalgic feelings.
I longed for the girl I once was-
The one I left behind a year ago.

She was a brave young woman 
Who left everything behind 
To find herself
In quiet tucked away Devon.
Friends and family had their doubts,
but she was determined.

As I reminisce on the past 
I am filled with gratitude -
For the friends I made, 
Each one pouring into me,
Helping shape the woman
I have since become. 

The younger me was never left behind
In tucked away Devon.
I carry her with me -
She is still brave,
Still determined,
Still finding herself.
