I’ve always been looking for an escape A hole to hide from the vastness of reality Observing life with fuzzy edges On the outside looking in
Then the skies ripped open Lightening struck with piercing white hot clarity Storms raged within my heart Thrashing waves of agony
Yet as hard as it was to breathe There was no escaping the pain That demanded to be felt Shaking my foundations Threatening to pull them down
I found release within the chaos Reaching out instead of curling in Safety in hands keeping me afloat When my head was under water Stirring me to embrace the tide
Finally forced into existence To feel To hurt To learn To heal
