Standing at a life’s crossroads,

This journey I must travel alone.


As I stand upon this mountain top,

Its my time to show that I’ve grown.


Time to be teacher,

And yet be the one that learns.


Time for a life of giving,

Watch at all the knowledge I’ll earn.


Time to start the healing,

This gift placed upon my hands.


Time to heal myself,

My foundation is strong where I stand.


I walked through that valley of death,

Then I  had much fear.


Until  I looked inside myself,

And saw I was the one to fear.


My thoughts consuming my soul,

Afraid I was losing my mind.


All along it was images inside my head,

Making me feel like I was Blind.

The cracks have started to surface,

The walls have begun to fall.


The power I have beneath this skin,

I would have never seen at all.


But I stand here looking in this mirror,

And answers I still seek.


Guess it time to look inside again,

Time for another peek.


Time to break the chains that bind me,

And keep me from who I am.


For I am the one that holds the answers,

It makes me who I am.
