PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

the places I went to hide from my fears

no longer feel like I belong there

they bring unwanted emotions



they make me wish for the numbing notions

from which I am trying to escape

those no longer hold a place in this new shape

trying to run from these demons inside

didn't work, it only served to amplify

the feelings inside, but it also helped me to face

these feelings from which my mind did race

so I feel no shame in the scars or the stories

because they only show off this new found glory

of a heart on the mend, on the true healing path

no longer wallowing in impotent wrath

and so begins another part

of this imperfect work of art
