Subject: The unseen part of healing


Healing is not linear, they said

So there is no point in playing pretend

Healing does not happen over night

It does not have to always feel right

 

Here I am, trying to fix the damage I made

from last night's outburst of rage

Carefully trying to pick up the shattered pieces

While up in my throat, I feel guilt and regret

 

I have been through this before

It has been so long since I let out a storm

I thought I had kept my emotions inside

Yet now I am back on the first step of finding the light

 

The worst part of healing is forgetting

The walls that I built so hard, I ended up breaking

It is as if I never learned from my previous mistakes

And now I am back after being tested by fate

 

Healing is not peaceful, I am here to warn you that

It is filled with breakdowns and going back

You will not even notice doing it again

Later on, you will have another session to attend
