My heart doesn't ache anymore
My breath doesn't hitch at the thought of being
Not anymore,not anymore.
Gone are the days I spent feeling like a zombie,fighting to not be.
My days seem to shine brighter,my nights peaceful even when they grow darker.
I think I get it now
I'm one with myself,I'm at peace with myself.
In this moment I choose to live,I choose to believe,I choose to hope and best believe I chose to say no.
My anxiety doesn't cripple me like it used to
There are nights I feel it yes- I still feel it too
I experience the struggles,the pain.
I experience the uncertainty,the fear.
I go through the hustle,I fight through the tussle
But I'm not who I used to be
A new perspective I have gained
This time I give to me,I choose me
I pour into myself,I pour into my family
My friends,my loves,my songs and they pour right back into me.
I don't know when,I truly don't know how it happened but I'm grateful for the love and grace I've extended to myself.
I'm excited at what the future holds now
I'm no longer scared to open my eyes everyday
It's hard somedays don't get it twisted
Yet I've given up what I can't control and I'm doing the best I can
Showing up me,for her,for him,for them the best I can.
We're getting there,going on this beautiful journey and I have to say Serwaa I'm your biggest fan!
