Becoming

My first attempt at a haiku chain

Becoming

Sitting in a chair
She ponders on her old self
Chair rocking with creaks

Choices she has made
Her own internal battle
Both angry and sad

A feeling of pride
Defeating negative thoughts
Knowing she has grown

With ignorance gone
New light breaks through what was scars
Shame now pride and hope

She has empathy
Burying the dead shed skin
Looking back no more
