New You

XX

By Kelly O'SullivanPublished 5 years ago β€’ 1 min read

Rituals of self doubt steal every day,

Imposter of dreams, please go away,

Costumes of Identity , thrown on the fire,

Truth laid in ruins, other Voices seem higher.

Vibrations of fear , Buzz in the mind

Friends have left you , please remain kind

Lucid reminders of horizons lost,

Come forth as you are now, Whatever the cost!

No one can replace you, Nor stand where you are,

Completion, clarity, always leaves a scar.

Nature implores you, So Feel up your sense,

Try one more time, Dismantle your fence,

Hope can then flicker, with some peace it brings,

For Adjustment, acceptance, Falls on broken things.
