When I lay

Finding my sexuality has been a part of my healing journey which has been an extremely challenging time, I spoke very openly and raw about it on the #AbuseTalk Podcast if you want to hear more. But I wrote this one morning when I spent some time reflecting.

 

When I lay

 

When I lay staring at the ceiling

When I wonder why I never knew

When I think about the lost time that can never be reclaimed

When my body talks to me

When I finally know the pieces click together

When I feel the contentment embed itself within me

When I lose the worry about other people’s opinions and views

When I allow myself acceptance

When I first feel comfortable

When all my questions have been answered 

 

That’s when I get to say that I am truly me.
