Healing begins with one spark;
One
Awareness
When you alone are ready.
Healing begins with one spark;
One
Awareness
When you alone are ready.
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.
Melancholy
Delight
Melancholy
Delight
Up
Down
Up down
Round and round
Spinning, spinning.
Trying to grasp anything
As it passes by.
And the tea kettle whistles
Bringing me back
Here.
And I put my feet upon the floor
Once again
Ready to live more.
More than ever.
Don’t break
down don’t
break down
Going round and round
In my head.
My other self
Laughing at me in my mind.
Hold it steady.
Be ready to bolt.
No
Looking back.
Keeping my eyes on the
Closest exit;
The path
Is clear and free of obstructions.
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.
