A poem from my youth

I found this poem I wrote in my diary 18/09/04. It really hits home.
Note: it's unedited as is. I was 20 years old.

I crave this time alone
I long for it
All to myself 
With no one to bug me
I can then think
Really think
About life
Where it's going
Time to reflect
Time to relax
Truly be me
I long for time alone
Time to think
Be free
When I'm done
Truly being alone
I emerge
Into the world
Like a
Beautiful butterfly 
Free at last 
To be totally me
Face this world again
Strong as can be
Beautiful and free
I'm totally me

You don't have to agree with all that I am writing about, however please refrain from name-calling, belittling, and bullying. That will not be tolerated here. Thank you.
