Recovering

I had to ask myself today
Will I portray my hurt or my healing?
Does my soul need release or mourning?
Will the sun light still hit the ocean waters
the same either way?

I think at the beginning of validation is when you feel the most hurt.
(The most betrayed, the most vulnerable, the most angry, the most relieved.)
You begin to replay all you can remember
Perspective changed and the uneasy days
Seemed to hold less blame

Should I revert into my old patterns?
Just an echo and a weight.
Or do I voice my new opinions
To my shadow that can�t escape?
Will one day I be able to tell stranger?

Today I could write about what my body still hasn�t allowed itself to feel
But what do I really know about it?
Rolling conclusions and allegations
Maybe today
I�ll just rest �
