The Days of Recovery(Day 2): The girl in the mirror

a thousand wishes

When I look in the mirror I see the girl I  used to be  

Consumed by fear  and shedding tears 

But now When I open my eyes I see everything       

I ever wanted me to be 

And I feel free 

 

So when you say that it's important how I  

View myself, I say I am who I am and wouldn’t want  

To be anyone else 

So don’t try to change 

Cause all that remains is me 

 

I can shed all tears 

And I can shed all of my fears 

Every bad feeling 

I have ever felt

Balled up and turned  

Into recovery  

Trapped in a mirror and staring back at me

    Something +ve after so many sad poems from you. You became a stronger version of the past you. The problems thay you once thought like a mountain are like a pebble today. That feeling, i can understand you while seeing myself in the mirror.
