The New Me

“looking back, I’m ashamed of what I was I’m different now, though not without flaws Each crest becomes a trough, as we move on God slowly steers soul towards a new dawn” I was a dusty carpet always ignoring abuse, it was being piled never differentiating between a real friend and an opportunist I always made sure I gave others more then I gave myself, my heart was always a blood bath and my soul hurt like hell At the age of thirty six I began my journey with a therapist who found the little girl in me and helped her rise again Locked inside a suitcase at six, the world to me was closed I started living again, this time I became my own best friend I learned to say no when I meant no and yes when I meant yes there were adjustments along the way, with family and friends but sooner or later they came to realize I had seen a new dawn and I wasn't going to be used as a runner for their dirty feet God slowly steered my heart towards a wholesome love of self, after freeing my soul I embraced the fire and began living again.
