To the decade that was
To the decade that was a storm,
a whirlwind of emotions,
a rollercoaster of high highs
and low lows;
to the years that shaped me
into this shell, into the armour
I wear today and the
falls of despair and gloom I fight
on the battlegrounds of my mind.
-
To the years of loneliness and
fear; to the tears, and anguish.
Thank you.
I am no one today if not for the
soul that survived.
-
To the happy days and cheerful smiles,
the laughter, and the
subtle blushes that warms my heart.
Thank you,
For all the moments
between the memories, the good,
the not so good and the bad.
I’ll never forget you.
-
To the words bled and the stories lived
may your magic live on,
and grace the new year with
everything I need to carry on
-
To the liferaft keeping me afloat
I hope you never give way
to the waves. I can’t win.
I can’t swim. I’m scared.
It’s time to venture into
the great unknown. Alone.
-
This is my blank page,
my white canvas, my clean slate.
-
To the decade that was
heartbreaking and exhilarating,
I say goodbye.
Thank you for everything.
I’ll miss you and the hope
you held hostage.
It’s time to dream beyond the
silver horizon.
