Moving Forward

I haven't fallen this time. It's brushed my mind many times, but my demons haven't overtaken me. I've stayed focus on now. On here. I didn't let the past drag down me down to the smothering shadows and the ugly truth.

I've accepted that I can't change the past.

I've forgiven myself for what I couldn't see or change.

It's taken me years to get to this point.

For the first time in ten years, I haven't surrendered.
