PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I have so many hang-ups;

I never lived in the present. 

All my insecurities 

kept me in a spiral 

where I was there in body 

but my mind was somewhere else. 

Past hurts clouded relationships 

and magnified current treatment.

The voice in my head 

is sometimes louder 

than the ones of 

those who love me.

I got to the point 

that I couldn't keep letting 

the pain inside 

close me off from the world. 

I needed to open up 

like a flower and blossom.

You pushed through the pain,

and this chasm between us

has finally been shut.

My confidence is back

and my grievances 

and bitterness faded away.
