The road of healing

Miss Ann

The road of healing

I always imagine myself as a warrior:

Me vs the world (people who hurt me, my past, my insecurities).

You never know where you will be hit next,

Because they wear masks, they show themselves as your friends and mentors

Giving you advice to follow the “right” and “safe” way

Even if it keeps your pain repeating itself over and over again.

My constant resistance makes me tired but aware,

Like they will hurt me no more.

But the only thing I want is detachment.

I don’t wanna fight, I accept my pain,

I’ve learnt from it, that’s all in the past.

I am already strong enough to protect myself,

So my indifference and calmness scare them away

Because it’s not under their control anymore

When illusions fade away, you look inside yourself,

You study yourself and you enjoy that you’re complete.

You understand that everything which you were held to is

Just a product of your imagination,

Your illness but not love.

Because true love inspires and supports,

It doesn’t hurt and betray.

Your healing process may be slow but worthy.

The happiness which you reach on your way is precious

Now as you know what you want to fight for.

For the first time in your life

You stop waiting and start living.

Sometimes I think that I feel too much,

It’s almost unbearable.

Love, happiness, passion, sorrow, anger, anxiety –

It covers me like a wave:

My body hurts, my head is about to explode

And I’m always afraid I’m gonna lose myself and get crazy.

Sadness makes my heart heavy,

It’s even hard to breathe.

At these moments I imagine it would be endless

Like I’m drowning in this darkness.

But the storm slows down, my ocean becomes calm,

I wake up and I can see things clearly.

I always come back to my harbor stronger than before.

The process is not fast,

From time to time, I even think that God forgot about me

But it just takes patience.

‘Do not force anything, let things just be’ –

A lesson I must learn on a way of defeating my irrationality.

Once I thought I ran out of tears.

They were coming out over and over again,

It felt infinite and then stopped: why am I doing this to myself?

Why do I constantly torture myself going down to the hell

Which I created? Will it ever end?

Sometimes we become addicted to our pain.

And when it goes away, we choose to put ourselves on the same road.

Even if it hurts deeply, subconsciously we like it but never admit.

We got used to living like this and when the slightest thing changes,

When we see the light, we don’t believe and we’re afraid.

We’re frightened of being happy and loving.

But what about my hell? Does it disappear? Never.

I feel these demons every day and almost every second.

They whisper, sometimes they scream.

They tell me that I’m not the person I’m trying to be,

They tell me I’m a hypocrite who hides their true self.

Will they ever leave? No.

So, what am I supposed to do?

Live and embrace my demons but not follow them

Because the choice is always mine.

I control, I choose the other side.

My genes don’t have a right to rule my life, I won’t let them.

My freedom is in love and forgiveness,

Being honest with myself is the main priority.

Some time ago, when I thought about my past,

It went through me like it’s happening right now,

It hurt and I lived in it.

But what’s the point?

Spending your life on something that was far away,

Repeating particular moments in your head,

Missing the ones who decided to leave you.

My time is precious, my happiness is in my hands,

I don’t wanna waste it anymore.

Now it feels like I’m in the water

And it brings me slowly to the place I need.

It flows and I’m calm because I trust it.

For the first time in my life, I don’t want to control anything.

Just be as it is because if something is yours,

It will be yours and find a way to you no matter what.

You have to be as much a dreamer as me

To understand the world I see.

31.08.2022

It’s never too late to love again,

To feel the way, you always wanted to feel.

It’s never too late to open your heart,

To show your true self, to believe and trust.

It’s never too late to change your life.

For a long time, I have thought

That I fought against one particular person.

He was the monster in my head, he was my greatest fear.

I pictured him as a narcissist who played with me

And hurt me because he was cruel and had no soul.

Only later I saw the reality:

Not against him I was but against myself.

Our talks which I imagined where I said what I really felt,

How painful it was and unfair what he did to me

Were the talks with my infantilism.

Because we got angry only with something which we deny in ourselves

We close our eyes and pretend we don’t care

Though we want to scream.

As soon as I accepted myself, the anger has gone.

I forgave myself, my heart is light,

I let myself be weak and vulnerable

And I’ve never felt as free and

Close to something incomprehensible as I am now.

I believe in love.

Love that conquers all,

Love that heals and inspires.

And if you don’t fight for your love

So, what else do you fight for?

6.09.2022

I feel endless love and beauty inside,

It even hurts to express the way it shines

Because there are no words for this.

I want to cry it out loud,

I want to shake your indifferent minds,

I want to make you feel alive.

6.09.2022

I have always been a dreamer.

Even when some people hurt me a lot,

I’ve never given up on my beliefs and never will.

6.09.2022

If somebody hurt you a lot,

It doesn’t mean that you are a fool.

It means you have the biggest heart

Because you tried to see the light when there was none.

Love and joy should be slow and gradual

Like you’re walking through the park on a sunny day

When you don’t have any business to do

Or any problems to solve.

Our world is full of quick pleasures,

They are easy to find and to forget.

People pretend that everything is alright just because

It’s not fashionable to feel sorrow.

But what will be left in the end?

Is there any happiness in this? No.

Details are important, focus and feel.

And even if you think that you’re alone, you aren’t.

At this right moment your special person thinks the same way.

11.09.2022

There will be always something that tries to break your world.

Because when you have love inside,

You’re special, you are not like the others.

It’s not fashionable to be different

And it’s so hard to be yourself and fight for your dreams.

But never give up, keep that beauty and share with it,

Don’t let them get you.

Can you look deeply into my eyes and see what I see?

11.10.2022

I always think what will be if I die tomorrow.

Everything becomes clear at once

And most of my worries don’t make any sense.

It’s a part of me to overthink and always underestimate myself

Like I’m in an endless competition with the world

Which doesn’t give a fuck.

I wake up from this mess every time and wonder:

Why do I care so much? For what?

I don’t wanna play these games anymore:

Hiding, disregard, understatement and hypocrisy.

I want honesty, I want something real.

1.11.2022

My scream roars from inside out

And breaks my chest, but will you listen?

So many words are on my tongue,

So, I pour them like a waterfall through my art, but who cares?
