Self Discovery

She needs an escape, she said.

As she walks ahead, she's stuck in a loop

She hasn’t figured out the root

The core where all of it stems

So many layers, she lost count of them

Since she was 10, she's trying to comprehend

Her back she bends

To meet ends

A hand she lends

She spent hours lost in her mind

staring at a wall she was so unkind

She needs an escape, she said

So she can break free from the thoughts in her head

You could pretend for so long

But everyone breaks

How much hate can you take when

Every inch of your soul aches?

You repeat the same nonsense expecting a different result

And blame everybody around you when it's your fault

You chose to hold it in you

it burns so deeply not even hell will accept you

If she's here coming out clean

She doesn't want to be seen

She wants to be heard

She craved the attention, approval

And when she did not get it, life got brutal

See she was social until she lost trust

Because she confided in people, she created this illusion

She needed some time to adjust

Especially from the delusion

The insanity she’s created

But in reality, it's herself she hated

She was a slave to her mind

Her mind soul and body was disconnected

Everything she did She deflected

She wasn't ready to face her demons

they keep knocking

Stalking me haunting me

blocking me stopping me

She says.

Until her eyes started bleeding her nose started bleeding her ears

It was a blood bath

It was like an equation you couldn't solve in math

But there was a science behind it

Energy mindfulness spirituality

Once you become aligned

Forgiveness faith combine

The path will guide you in an unfamiliar direction

And when you do your daily

Introspection

Connection

Is where you find protection

Walk away from comfort switch up your routine

Clearly the one your livin' by

Will always intervene

You can't be happy every day

It's normal that a road will get bumpy

Those are the days you will become hungry, hungry for success

In the meantime when you obsess

Don't suppress, let it off your chest

The time you invest in self-love self-nurturing, self

You will begin to be aligned with yourself.
