The “Real” YOU

Is this unveiling truly revealing something hidden deep beneath the surface?

Or is this just the tip of the iceberg peeking over the plateau?

Underneath.

How much further must you go before all is shown?

Do you know?

Do I even know anything truly about myself?

Or do I just go off of what others say or think about my mask?

When I lay myself down to rest and there is no need to hide from the rest but I am stuck with myself and this is the ultimate test.

Do you love yourself?

Do you know what it feels like to not hate yourself?

Do you know the difference?

Hate and anger and vengeance were my friends.

Since they've been stripped away...

I feel like I lost my demons.

What shall I carry on my back and shoulders now that the weight has been lifted?

I feel weird.

I feel light.

I feel fine?

But is that just denial and a lie?

Felt so used to being a ball of painful memories and it feels like something did electric shock therapy.

Or did my aunt really perform some unknowing exorcism on me?

Everything happens for a reason they say...

Part of me splitting away, part of me taking over and reigning in control.

Part of me feels gone...a huge chunk of my soul.

Are you still there or did something else get stolen from me? Another part of me.

Gone.
