“My Chapter”
Closing old feelings
is oh so hard,
opening up to new ones
is even scarier.
I’m taking that step –
a step towards me.
I’ve been finding myself
for months now.
But the ghosts of my past
are interfering with my progress.
They hit and poke me –
trying to make me crack again.
Not this time,
Not right now.
I’m moving forward.
