Metamorphosis

I have fallen deep into the abyss.

I contemplate all of the lies, secrets, and truths that I have missed.

I have been asleep too long to feel the bliss…

It’s been a while since I’ve had a true love’s kiss.

I’m sinking deeper into a dark place.

I think I’ve travelled as deep as the sunken place.

I reminisce on your warm embrace.

But I have fallen too far, please don’t give up on me, have some grace.

I’m scared, I don’t like this place.

The paranoia, confusion, sweaty face, I don’t like this place.

I feel like I’m in outer space,

My heart is beating as if it’s a Mario Kart race.

I feel disgraced…that I let my thoughts win, and become displaced.

I’m stuck..but I’m not a coward, I will be brave and face my demons.

I see them….I look at them dead in the eye and scream: “I don’t want to be them!”

Transformation, I see the light. Let me come clean,

I will put up a fight.

I push with all my might.

Healing, love, compassion, my eyes on the prize is all I see in sight.

I feel the pain drain away, I feel my wings expand and realize that it will be okay.

I see the brighter days.

I rose from the ashes and explored a new way to spread love for all to be okay.

I am praying for new days.

Heal the world and let’s all pray for brighter days.
