Thinking back… The past rushing up to meet me Chills running down my spine Here comes that time Feeling it like it was yesterday The memories flashing before me Like an old movie I didn’t like then Seeing the places I had been Then so slowly it fades to darkness The new light shinning upon me The new pictures coming along Makes me want to break out in a song Singing of joy and peace My soul rejoicing in the freedom No longer wrapped up in my own chains Free to move about Free to release my heart Free to open my mind Free to feel without fear Not needing to scream any longer The raging storm subsiding Filled with peace and courage again Knowing I am where I am supposed to be Accepting that the storm still shows itself to me Grateful that it still comes around for me to see If I ever forget the storm that used to rage within It will consume me once again Ten years of freedom from the storm Blessed for it by those that were born
Reason for writing:
For 10 years of peace and freedom from the madness i created and was a slave to.
Birth sign: Sagittarius
