The Journey by Michelle 💫 #PTSD #stafishclub #poem #poetry #Coffeeandachat #BraveWrites @coffeeandachat1
The label of bipolar
I struggled to shed
For denial of having it is on the list
Yet I had to go through this
I had to show that this was an error
So all the courses I took on
to show
To demonstrate
That it was that this label was wrongly assigned
For this was only based on what my behaviour was showing
Only through this journey
Where I never gave up hope
Kept me on the right path
Though I walked on a knifes edge
So I kept my head down
striving and living
Adapting new changes to push my growth
The mission to work on the self
The more I put in the more
The more they could see
That my promiscuity was/is shock from so many traumas
Yet I was mute
due to shock
I was mute a passive soul
I was mute a fixer of souls
Yet I needed to be fixed within
So here I stand to say to you
I trust this next soul of the counsellor variety to tackle each head on to shed the caterpillar self
Yet I find my humility in having faced this journey…
To be humble is all I have strived for
And this journey has humbled me to a gratitude attitude within
For me this is where true beauty lays
Yet my work is never done
For Now the real work begins
For the challenge is to face head on each trauma in a safe space
So that pain of each trauma is faced
For I already have peace within
And more peace will follow you in this pursuit
For they will all be cast out
one by one
For the flashbacks tried to launch their attack without any knowing
Accidents of the toilet variety happened and would take me unawares.
Yet I stand here and say
I nearly believed that this would be my new normal
To now relinquish my power over each and every one
Out of my story may more others be helped
This is the aspiration of my mind to help others with similar truths being overcome .
Never give up
Keep chipping away small steps created consistently prove to be the biggest leaps in years to follow….
