One Month

Is a moment of bliss
When it strikes me that I'm not the same I was a month ago
I'm getting closer to who I reckon
Landing into my own skin
Like arriving home
What used to hurt me still hurts me now
It never stopped
I just stepped back from making peace with it
I can now feel it
And let it go
And sink into the present tense
Everything seems hopeful
Things are starting to move
I am starting to emanate
What I used to fear I still fear now
It never ceased
I just try harder to live with it
I can now breathe above it
And walk slower
And not let it take over
