I remember the face of my father
I remember the pain he inflicted, and I let it go
I remember being bullied during primary school
I remember the sadness and I let it go
I remember the negativity placed on me
I remember the worthlessness and I let it go,

I was in a fog, and I was lost
I could see nothing, and I was afraid
A heaviness descended on me, and I struggled
What I felt then was real, it was the processing
Now I see it differently.

I remember my first love
And the passion it exposed to my psyche
I remember the raw beauty of my first nature walk
And the delight that exploded within me
I remember the physical touch of body on body
There was a true connection of flesh to flesh.

From the fog expelled I am,
I am renewed.

The world around us is full of misery and pain
Full of drama and ego driven anger
Letting it go, seeing beyond
Life is a myriad of Gateways
Step through, one by one
A different experience
Remembrance is the key.

There is a new way.
