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
