Happy

For the first time in my life
I am not worried about being in someone's arms
Or allowing just anybody inside my own head
I am happy
I am content and honored by my own presence
This was not supposed to happen
But I am happy being me
Alone but not lonely
Encompassed in the still of my own peace
This is beautiful
This is bliss
I longed for this day like one longing for their first kiss
A day when I can sigh in relief
No more pain will be allowed into me
My heart
My mind
My soul
My body
Are all sacred pieces to my puzzle
I will not crumble or become weak
For the sake of allowing someone else to feast off of me
Draining my life force
Draining my temple
For the first time in my life
I can honestly say in a loud whisper
Free at last
