Overcoming trauma is one of the longest roads back to yourself. I was recently introduced to a form of EMDR that allowed me to put away a past hurt and find a beautiful memory to put in its place.

I blinked and saw new light

The pain was gone and my heart was free

Healing as I put away a burden from the past.

Lightened when I felt the release in my soul,

The breath came easy, no longer forced.

Suddenly, I have free rein over my outcomes.

The simple abundance of choice is now my guide.

Birds did not sing, no pomp and circumstance.

Just me finding, me.
