Leaving The Clocks Behind

-
Trapped in the hours of the clock
I lived life in yesterday
Healing scars from the past
Allowing them to marr the future

Experiences shaped perceptions
Of how I viewed life
Allowing it to colour
The future I imagined

The past year however
Broke this spell
Cast by shadows
That hung over me

I don't see the future still
But not the past either
Anxiousness hasn't become trepidation
Nor expectations transformed to fear

Something inside me
Is beginning her new journey
Born from this year of time
Lived in today

She doesn't have answers
But to herself she's now kind
As she starts a new journey
Of leaving the clock behind

Hidden behind her insecurities Still a champion for the meek Do you see that woman? That sits on her dark windows But dreams about the stars Do you see that woman? That looks back from the mirror  She's too much, too little,  Too guarded, too crazy  Too mad and too awesome  In a life of constant storm She is the ray of light.
