Healing

There was a time when I thought I’d never heal

It’s been almost a year

and I still think of you.

No longer every day but

sometimes my chest aches

when I remember what you did to me.

There was a time when I thought I’d never heal

but here I am.

I stand before my former self,

head held high and arms flung wide,

and she knows that everything

we have done has led us here.

I am satisfied with the decisions I have made.

Can you say the same?
