I never knew I dealt with addiction my whole life. so many traumas throughout my life. . but I never knew what that caused. This poem seemed to come out of no where while sitting at the beach one day. I lived in Arkansas my whole life it seemed... and always felt "safe" so to say. However it took this drastic move for me to truly grow into the woman I was born to be.
Recovery
A world apart from where we were,
no mountains, streams or rivers
the dragons breath I once chased turns into white caped waves crashing into the shore
Once my only safety found in a cave of my own creation, that safety now resides in the vastness of my ever changing soul, Twin Flames.. once so thought .. the veil now lifted, what reviled. toxic karmatic souls on fire, a dream shattered. a nightmare that held no fear but an awakening for me now I live in my own identity..
No longer in need of a hurricane instead the sunshine embraces my body,
Recovery... makes my spirit be true,
The Phoenix has risen.. the flaming wings do not extinguish in the salt filled waters of the sea..
Being in recovery in a paradise like Southern Florida is a gift from God.
