Shedding, Like a Snake

When will I realize that I'm not normal People don't think or feel the way I do It's ok. I will shed my past, like all snakes Growth requires they shed their skin Energy from the,' Year of the Snake' 2025 With this energy I will let the past go Expectations need to be left behind The skin holding me back in Life I made Holding on to negativity true or not Anger, Loss of a Child, Heartbreak, Guilt Regret, Shame, Failures, even Success Abuse, Addiction, Traumas all my life All of that formed a thick skin A protective shield from the World Now it holds me back in growth Remembering and finding Forgiveness For everything even, the little things Makes it possible to Shed old skin Emerging to a life without limits Becoming who I was born to be A beacon of light for all the World
