I went away
Disappeared
for nearly ten years.
I came back
Revitalized
to recapture my soul.
The first year
Floundered
trying to be who I was
The second year
Struggled
trying to be who I could be
The third year
Thankful
being who I am today
The more time I spend in the now,
The less time I spend fearing the future
And regretting the past.
