Rose Tinted Shades

Some years ago I was constantly wearing Rose-tinted shades

I started hurting myself with words that cut deep like blades

At the same time as receiving poor grades

I was unaware and oblivious to what was going on

 

I used to treat life as though it was a movie and enjoy whilst eating popcorn

This was before the mental trauma and pain

The pain that locked me up in a tight chain

Giving me thoughts about whether I was sane

That misery was originally keeping me astray

The strain and torment created a perfect pathway

Impacting on the strong woman I have become today
