The Trauma of Change
Have you ever thought about the mistakes you make
Have your thought about the ones you hurt or are still hurting
Every word you speak can be encouraging or destructive
The life i have lead has not been the best
I took all this rage all this hurt and all this pain out on others
I've been blessed but so foolish
My heart has always been black
Lost in the dark
These words i've spoke to her and them
Are trauma in its purest form
I have replayed every moment in my head and cannot figure out why
I cant take it all back
Cant bury it down so deep anymore
46 years of life a waste on negative dreams
And positive nightmares.
I hope someday they forgive
And i can move into the light permanently.
For this is the trauma of change for me
Its time to stand loving and strong for me.
