Judgement Day

The memories still cross my mind, time heals all wounds.

I still remember the days I was sitting high as a kite, praying for the sobriety I have today.

-

I still remember the pain, anguish, and misery of merely existing. The need to be ms. chameleon, to please everyone around me.

-

I still remember the trauma bonds I had to break, to free myself from the circle of wolves disguised as sheep around me.

-

It has not been easy, this procession of change is not for the weak.

-

I still remember the pleas of my loved ones to come back from the destruction darkness, and madness plaguing my heart.

-

I still remember the day I fell to my knees in agony for the last time; a plea, admission of guilt to my insanity.

-

I looked up to the setting sky. In that moment, I surrendered my soul back to the infinity of love and light.

-

I still remember that day I swore I would give up my petty grievances, to serve humanity.

-

I still remember the difficulty of the change; preceding events that felt like an exorcism. The ripping, rearranging the very fibers of my being.

-

I still remember, so don't tell me where ive been, I know. Look in the mirror, can you spot our similarities versus our differences?

-

what do you choose today?
