For many years
debilitating thoughts
made a home in my mind
No room at the inn, door locked
…confined
I smiled in silence
To an oblivious room
All the while
My throat screaming
For all the bad memories
All the unfair nights
All the damn hurt!
the effects
…and the cause
Life played out and my lips
….Obediently paused
Until
The drink of belief
Made her way
From my mouth to my feet
Like a waking alien
I have found my home again
And all that was shrunken inside
Lost the urgency to cling and hide
Rising in hope
Yes this freedom speaks
Oh honey…
This freedom sings!
She flys on flames atop of wings
And the music is sweeter than ever
My voice, my speakers
Reign out
Bleeding a glorious color
Onto white corners
of my
…Newly born feathers.
The reinvention of one’s self is very invigorating. Outsiders often confuse this with us being lost but on the contrary it shows strength in the resolve to grow and be dynamic with the experiences we acquire. I’ll be looking forward to more of your writings!
