I Stand


I'm free

Safe

For now. 

Who knows,

How long

This will

Last.

Is it 

False hope?

As usual 

As always. A false 

Sense of 

Security.

A trick 

Played by 

My own

Mind?

Am I 

Manipluating 

Myself?

Is that 

Possible?

Or maybe 

I'm just

Crazy.

Like

The rest

Of them.

How long

Will this 

Go on,

The saftey;

Temporary 

Or permanent?

Am I 

Still wanted

Or unneeded,

Maybe needed

Somehwere

Else,

By someone

New,

A new

Chapter. 

NO.

A new 

Story. 

I am 

Restarting.

I am

Refreshing.

I am 

Not that 

Other person 

That you

Once knew. 

She was

Broken,

I am 

Whole

I am

Fixed

I am 

NOT me

Not the 

Me, you

Once. Knew.

She is

Gone.

And here. 

I stand. 

From where

I once

Fell.

I stand

Again, tall.

Strong and

Unbreaking.

I stand.
