Thank you very much James for accepting the challenge of collaborating with this poem.


As a balm that caress the skin, returning to the light leads to a peaceful haven
Vindicating the lost soul that was trapped under layers of somber shadows
Tormented by inner voices, sending evil thoughts to the cerulean ether
Until one day, woke up in the morning and asked for the necessary help
Life seems better, walking to a path that promises a better outcome
Forgiving and forgetting the setbacks, known as life journey lessons
Shedding the old self, to become a chrysalis, who spread the wings
Soaring to heights that transcend the cottony clouds of the sky
Free at last, the grandeur of the heavens , consoles my lonely soul
The voices of the past, transient now, escapes, searches for lost souls
My recovery was facilitated by a love stronger than my hideous past
A phoenix rises from ashes placing visions of euphoria and optimism in me
I have been reborn. No longer needing these wings of fine woven silk
I walk proud, happy, but remembering, the sorrow can come back
Not allowing it to return,I surround myself with love and self being
Be yourself, proud and true, being for others, is only a step back
into the past
Live for the here and now, the future will be what you wish it to be
Ability to trust again, to let down your guard, to love and to be happy
