Evolution

I could longer

run

hide

deny

because it ate away my soul

I could longer

fight

pretend

act invisible

because it eroded my identity

So I learned to

see My-self

accept who I am

have self-compassion

embrace growth and change

I slowly evolved

Now, even on those darkest days

there is light in my soul

dancing in the sun

and hope in my heart
