Clawing Me Back
Sometimes my mind takes me on a journey
To that cave i hid in as a child
And i picture everything so clearly
Like im there before your angry bloodshot eyes
The object of all your hate
Where im doubled over from the blows
I can smell the vomit in the corner
As you rub my face in it
I shiver to my core from those fearful nights
Alone without light
I hear myself whimper from the pain
A life you totally disdain
And then i snap out of it like a man awaking from a coma.
And i breathe in the Aroma of freedom
Of this reality
And you cant claw me back
For through my God centered spirituality
I realize i have forgiven you
And i am truly free to be me
And to never be like you.
