Now I know

NOW I KNOW I hated the way I felt. Everything appeared pallid and grey. Nothing glinted, nothing shone. Inside me a heavy stillness, like a deserted factory. The nothingness was frightening. Punching a pillow to access my anger, I was fightingforsome uncluttered space in my head, to find the nuggets of wisdom. Gazing at the stars , I wished for a new body and soul, some miraculous results. Only now I can pull offmy mask in public- with a message that will be universal and healing, to the collective power of good. Only time will heal old wounds. AndI will never again- take my freedom for granted! I now know what I want Be nurtured and cared for. To reclaim my life.
