A NEW THING

..

By Harydo NeonPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Eyes going to the back of my head, that's how I reflect

How bad things were before the mental reset

When everything seemed like an over 10-year long marathon without rest

Where waking up to a bright day was something I did detest

But then it just changed,

A phenomenon I can't explain

I mean there is still pain, I see it

But it is , surprisingly, healing

I can see my walls being rebuilt

My home up here being repainted,

The plant that almost died from wilt

It's all green again, with more roots that's stemed

3 days I never thought would have such effect

3 days I never knew would teach me how to rest

3 days I never expected to feel so free to admire the earth

3 days I never thought would teach me to cherish my breath

I don't think I am whole yet, not by a long shot

I have slipped and fell since then, untamed thoughts

But they don't drown me anymore

They could hit me till I am sore but I would still get up and walk

I am seeing myself breathing

I am seeing myself living

I am seeing my smile in the mirror again

I am seeing vanishing of my dark spots and stains

Even with doors opened, Fear doesn't enter anymore

I think he understands he no longer rules with tough love

I am holding onto this , cause all that matters is right now

There is light here, my mind has become a Powered-House
