Retrace

Standard

When I was ready; when I had had enough,

I began to dig deep and face some memories I had tried not to keep. Some parts of me had been in hiding or dressed in disguise;

Pretending to be invisible.

It took longer than I thought it might.

I had to hold myself accountable for my own part and went back to the start.

I did not realize how far away from myself I was

Until I started retracing the steps back to myself.

Healing.

Speak Again

Standard

And some come into your life to see

The aftermath.

To see you exhausted and easily startled.

They do not know you are spent from fighting.

From being strong for so long.

But you know,

You know.

You will speak again

When you are ready my darling.

Until then be at ease

With peace.

Breathe and see yourself.

You have to remind yourself,

It is only the echo.

It.

Is.

Only.

Echos.

The past is the past.
