At This Time...

I've fought for

Been fighting against 

Trying to get to a point

Where I bump into peace

Have a conversation with release

And dissolve myself of strain

It's been a long long time.

Just surviving a day

Tolerating these pains

Wanting to scream

Yet to afraid to be labeled...

Labeled insane 

Imprisoned by my fears

Even when my vision was clear

Too embarrassed to fail

Ashamed of the image that reflects 

Stressed to the brink of collapse 

Unaware of my relapse 

That is until the day I let go

For more than myself 

Had a heart to heart with faith

Who informed me of my resiliency 

As I embraced comfort

What was muted in my spirit 

Screamed from the depths of my soul

Overflowing with passion 

My heart presented my face with a smile
