The Diary of the Butterfly

Going Back

I can't believe I'm saying this but I've been okay,

I don't hear voices anymore,

I can look in mirrors,

I feel comfortable in my body,

I've let fear go,

I did drown,

I think I'm still drowning,

But that's ok,

When I find the shore again freedom is what will hold me in place,

It's been months and it hasn't been easy,

But I'm fighting and I won't ever stop,

Because the little taste of peace and serenity that I've had all these months, is worth every minute of this constant battle between light and dark.

This time I'll be sure to ensure that light comes out on top because there is no way I'm ever going back.
