Awakened

Awakened The day I awakened life was no longer free-flowing , natural or beautiful. Spontaneity, love and happiness gone. Looking forward into the future or looking back in the past , doesn't belong In the present. Now that I've awakened and learned the truth after a lifetime of being fed all of the lies , life is no longer free-flowing , natural or beautiful anymore because I have awakened now I realize.

Aleta, your poem captures the stark duality of newfound awareness, where beauty is traded for truth. Yet, in its starkness, a raw authenticity compels us to confront the complexities of seeing through the veil. It is a powerful piece that lingers long after the final line. - Blessings, Daniel
