Such a bitter pill
Why?!?!?
Why?!?!?!?
WHY, WHY, WHY ?!??!!??!
Such a long, winding
Torturous journey
Just to end up HERE?
SERIOUSLY 😳?!?!!!!!
Coming full circle ⭕️
What is the use?
Anxiety and self doubt
Just an excuse?
This is hard
Not in the past
Not resolved
Need to be put to rest at last
Heart is pounding
Filled with dread
Like a noose tightening
Around my head
Brick wall
Hit hard and fast
Fear is palpable
Has the dye been cast?
Can’t go around
Been trying so long
Only way is through
Can’t worry I’m wrong
Have to be positive
Trust that I’m strong
Let go and be free
Gonna sing my song
NOW is all there ever will be
Take a breath and pause
Just a moment to see
What’s really the cause
Like the layers of an onion
Peeling back with tears
Each step getting lighter
Releasing my fears
Some are new
Most are old
Story loops
Retold and retold
I’m coming through
Home to me
Goodbye bitterness
Time to just be
