Trucking along the road
Disregarding life’s load
Taking advantage of the free ride
Letting someone else be the guide
Never to deviate from the course
Using another as the centrifugal force
Having lost all sense of being
You are now merely sightseeing
A shadow of your former self
Resembling an object on a mantle shelf
Used and abused with no voice
You have forgotten that you have a choice
Pave your own way out of that hell
All stigma attached you must dispel
You have the strength to be reborn
Heal the parts of you that are worn
Find yourself once more
Start walking to that door
On the other side is hope
A new life is not beyond your scope
Christine Bolton
