Poetry

I never thought

I’d be this happy just to walk out the door and feel freedom on my face and my soul.

My whole being is free from the evil that lurks in the corner.

Waiting to rob you of your joy and your energy and then play it as if they did nothing wrong.

The lack of hope that things will get better doesn’t stop me from smiling as I am in my happy space.

And all that evil and wickedness can’t touch me anymore.

And hopefully one day it will no longer be my problem.
