Then and Now

THEN I was afraid and very sad. Home was not a safe and loving place! Easy to pretend,and sometimes I tried to run. Needs were met,but emotions I kept hide! AND I wanted more and started checking things out. Nothing was changing,or? Dancing thoughts of change was erupting my brain! NOW I see life as a risk taker. Why I am not sure. One moment I am feeling free,able to express my deepest desires! Wow,I can make house a home,don't have to pretend,I will meet my own desires and Run no more! Run No More.
