So Far..

It Seems so Long Ago

Casey
I've come so far

It seems so long

Since I was back there

In the fires of hell

Fighting for life everyday

Trying to portray to everyone I was fine

When inside I was dying

A slow spirit killing, emotional death

Along with the constant battle in the physical sense

Who knows which scarred me worse?

Until the golden light of hope brought me out of the fire

Realizing the future that is in store for me

The potential to have a life with love and happiness

The ability to pursue my dreams, my hopes

To push through the fear, and anxiety

I am now free! It still seems unreal though...

To go from no control to having total control over my life

I am so thankful I'm alive, every breath is so sweet

So thankful I am here to tell my story

To create a piece of art from such pain

Hopefully someday I will help someone with my words

    The feelings conveyed are shared by so many people unbeknownst to those around them. Beautiful piece!
