to stand in the Light

I never knew the reality of becoming a shadow of one's self.
Until then, it happened to me. 
And the only way to break the dance with one's shadow...

...is to stand in the Light.

Why?

I left because I am worth it. 

I Am Still Me

There were pieces of me that were slipping away. 
I could not grasp them because of fear.
I thought I had lost myself.

But you, you brought me back to life again. 
I am finding me. I am finding who I am.
Because I am still here. 

And I am still me. 

9 AM

I woke up next to you for the last time.

I knew it was time to walk away. 

Last December

I am not quite sure why you are here.
I am not quite sure why you have returned.
I thought this was over.

Excess

You are the drip that just won't stop.  

Use

I deserve better, and yet all I can think of is contacting you to fulfill me for a temporary high.
