A decade here

Here

Revisiting

 

Places and former feelings

Investing in a past

In the present that is

Anything but sad

 

I get some flashbacks and laugh

And others I ought to see past.

 

God willing

 

How I found myself

Here again

Still asking

How that could happen

However

 

No longer is my spirit broken

 

My life still filled with

Those memories

 

Though for a while

All they did was

Hinder me

 

Time and healing

Worked wonders

 

And I have been free

 

Today

Created moments

I can call my own

And mine alone.

 

As I peek at that past

Living

In the here and now

I am stoked for

What is coming up

 

Perhaps

A decade in the making

 

But maybe God wanted me thinking

 

My eyes have matured

But being a child at heart

Will forever be my nature.
