My eyelids shut - blackness...
It's peaceful
It's soft
It's... calm
My lungs fill with fresh air that hasn't yet been spoiled by the pain my body carries from the past
And as I exhale, my muscles relax and release the tension I've felt for 5 years now.
But most importantly,
As I exhale,
I smile.
Pure Happiness seems so hard to come by
Especially since it has been your stranger for so many years now
But once you realize that your old ghosts can't haunt you
That they can't hurt you
That you've grown out of them
You become
Purely Happy.
She is a scar in my memory
He is a crack in my heart
But they no longer control my life
I'm so much happier than I've been in a while
And I cannot wait to see what the future brings
With them even further away in my past.
