Starting Over

Survival is a lesson in itself.
Treacherous lives have suffered treacherous abuse -
Only to find enlightenment from the wisdom of denial.
Reality of denial opens major change -
Lessons of starting over;
Lessons of perception;
Lessons of connection.
Connection brings help from others...
Recovering from separation from life itself.
Remain open to all thought...
Remain open to all change...
Remain open to all possibilities.
Acceptable changes will arrive,
Bringing miracles of grandeur -
Healing once tortured lives.
