Growing Pains
warm sunny mornings to cruel endless nights:
a sleepless zombie,
living in someone else’s body.
joyful tears to pessimistic sobs:
wandering among photo albums,
Imposter.
sunny and shiny,
dolls and dress up,
golden smiles.
dull and matte,
pills and insomnia,
grim grimace.
recovery and new beginnings:
joyous feeling of youth restored,
inconsolable to optimistic.
two monsters underneath my bed -
i have confronted.
power to reclaim.
childhood memories to new age adventures:
each day golden,
i’m alive.
