The Haunting vs. The Lights

When you get the negative reception you weren’t expecting

There are a number of ways you can handle it.

First, to cower and hide.

This will be your first reaction, and

you will probably follow it.

The world has become a dark place

it reflects every right choice

as a mistake.

Hold On

They’ll keep flooding in

 

Expect Bitterness

Expect Self-Hatred

Expect The Haunting

You are a vacant mansion

Where only the ghost of your spirit waves

Side to Side

Haunting hurts,

but it’s the burning tears that remind you

you are alive

 

When you realize your life

to choose again

You will have two options

One, return to the ensnaring branches of your bitterness

To fold back in on yourself again

Or

Option two:

Reclaim yourself

Wake up in the middle of the night reeling from the pain of truth

Only to be left smiling at The Lights turning back on in your soul

Regaining your Peace is not easy

You’ll be expected to Accept your faults

Question your past

and realize it can’t be changed

You will learn to accept

you’re suppose to Be Here

For that, you’re exactly the kind of human that needs to be loved

cherished

That it doesn’t matter who you slept with

Or how dark your thoughts get

Or what an absolute disaster you are

as a human being sometimes

You’ll learn to love yourself again

To look more carefully

For those who see The Light in your soul
