Today I arose from a long deep slumber
Glad to be awake from the nightmare I had aimlessly wandered
I felt refreshed and at the same time I was hungry
As my eyes adjusted and I stretched my sluggish muscles
I was finally ready to start a new day
My stomach rumbled and ached
Desperately waiting to be fed after such a prolonged comatose state
I had to make sure that I chose my food wisely
I needed something to give me strength and not weigh down my body
After a hearty meal of truth and discernment
I was ready to face the day determined
So I
Hopped in the shower and cleansed myself for what seemed like hours
Realizing how much dirt you can acquire while just resting
Unaware that while you’re being still
Life’s debris still clings to your essence
Now I feel refreshed, cleansed and ready to take my next step
Only to find that I’m alone
I notice everyone else still in makeshift places
I find this as a chance to freely roam and explore my own designation
Now walking with God through the Journey to my manifest destination
No longer deceitfully confined to a futile mind that had me going crazy
Cause no matter how hard I tried I just couldn’t make it
Or how hard I fought my demons but just couldn’t escape it
How I was aching for real love but couldn’t find it or anything to replace it
Searching for my identity in a world of affliction
Asking for the answers in people who were going through the same
But they couldn’t hear me because they were clouded by their own pain
But now here I am peaceful and sane
Discovering my personality
Affirming my individuality
Isolated from propaganda that from birth was meant to kill my existence
Destroy my perseverance
Steal my hope faith and dreams leaving me inconsistent
Barren
A walking miscarriage
Stripped from my rightful power that God Himself proclaimed me
Now I’m taking it all back and this world can’t faze me
And now knowing who I am this world can’t ever change me
