LEARNING TO LIVE

I'm learning to live
Oh yes indeed


Was full of zeal
But no knowledge
But now I see


I live in this world
But am not of it


Had to learn some truths
That has been hard to stomach


A broken heart and a weary soul


Had to learn how to move on


Of some things It was hard to let go


There are some things I'm still working through
"What about you?"


I've heard the first step of recovery is admitting


Melancholy now
I'm outside my body and I see me sitting.


What am I waiting on ?
Am I waiting on a turn?


"Shake yourself ATIYA"
This is what I had to learn.


I had to learn that some relationships only last a season
Also that during this spiritual walk one may feel like a heathen


I had to learn you can't go off of feelings or what you see
"Is anyone else learning to live just like me?"


I'm learning not to be a puppet of the past
I'm learning to take my time and not move so fast


I'm emotional
But Calm


Beginning to understand where I went wrong


I'm learning to live
Oh yes indeed


Was full of zeal
But no knowledge
But now I see
