I started some spring cleaning which was
long overdue
Threw out unnecessary things and added
some things new
Out went my inhibitions
They were holding me back
Accompanying them were my superstitions
I am better off now, that those I lack
Depression was next on the list
Took a lot of boxes to pack that up, but
to get rid of it
Just needed one swift kick!!!
My hurts and grudges were weighing me
down
Threw them out too, didn’t need them
around
Insecurities were next, was scared to let
those go
If those would go, the real me I would
know
After a lot of deliberation, I reached a
decision
Insecurities would have to go, to retain
them there was no reason.
Some wounds were deep; I had never let
them heal
My loved ones offered me their love, to
help them seal
Anger and strife
Now they no longer had a place in my life
Now that I had got rid of so much
Had to get out a few things out of
storage
Out came sense, and walking with it
side-by-side was courage
Dignity, empathy, respect and love
Had always been the front runners in my
life
Added confidence and assertiveness
I think now I’ll do just fine
There are still a lot of changes to be
made
So many things that would be cool
But I’ll make them all in my own sweet
time
Did I ever tell you I am as stubborn as a
mule!!!
