Late Night Thoughts

I find myself for a loss of words.  Not because I believe that the words have left me forever, no.  But because of how astonished I am.  After over a year of being nothing, of being no one, I feel like a person again.  And not just a person, but an individual.  But you see, that is where I get lost.  Because, although I feel this way, I also feel like I belong with someone.  No, not to someone, but with someone.  And not just anyone.  I am my own person now.  I can do what I want, say what I want, have what I want, feel what I want.  All without worry that someone is going to tell me that I am wrong.  And yet, by choice, I am not alone.  I am, finally, a partner.  Not just a toy in someone else's game, but a player on the same team.  My own opinion and feelings are taken into consideration.  Choices are made based off of what I believe and what I feel.  I am, finally, a first pick and not just thrown to the side like I'm not even human...  
So maybe I have no rhyme left in me.  So maybe I can't feel the rhythm deep inside of me.  That part of my life is over, and I am happy to leave it behind.
