trapped for too long
enclosed, imprisoned, held.
time to release the poison ivy
of self doubt and recrimination,
shed the bondage of loathing and corruscating denial and awkward egocentric hate.
Phoenix like I will rise, I will take my place among the pantheon of the living, I will cherish, I will give, I will indulge of all of life....
I will grow, flourish, give of my all, for I have found life, I have found desire.
in you all I have found love.
you have saved me
