I finally feel like I can come from a place of healing when I speak to you

I took time
Isolated myself from everything
And everyone

I needed to find me again
I needed to know myself
Not this figment of who the world was trying to make me through the expectations of society

I'm not blaming
I'm cleansing
I'm choosing light over darkness

I was choosing the wrong life for myself for too long

I put myself in a cage

When I had the key all along
