Writing

Interrupting my self-oppression
Anxious feelings become welcomed strangers
Is this what freedom feels like
So raw, so familiar

Timidly I explore all of my desires
Feeling my own feelings
I’m in control (is that okay?)

My God, where have I been?
I’m a stranger, stretching into my own skin
My hands ache for the crinkle of this paper, this scratch of the pen

It’s been a long time and although
I’ve remembered you now and again
This is different, real
Permanent

Fear kept me running
But I’m no longer afraid
It’s okay to stand still in the comfort of warm light
Finding my joy as my heart and soul reunite.

  2. To be honest I don't really remember. But I do know each time I write this is how I feel. Writing feels like home.
