A step towards healing

For the first time in awhile
Today, I felt better than okay
I don't know how long this will last
But I won't let this moment pass

For the first time in awhile
Today, I was myself again
The stranger in my reflection
Went on a vacation

I've been hiding
Like a butterfly
Afraid to take flight
Someone broke my wings
I needed time to heal
But now I'm not afraid to be real

There will be ups and downs
Happiness isn't a path
It's a merry go round

Letting myself smile
A real smile
It's been hard
But I'm moving forward

I don't want to feel
Broken
I want to be
Outspoken
But I'm afraid to shout
Today, I found my voice again
That's what writing is truly about
