Everything has changed
Buried my regrets
Accepted my flaws
Naked secrets openly faded
Burned myself hate
Everything has changed
Made peace with the monster
Deep within
Forgave my mortal sins
Tears no longer drown
My dreams
Hope no longer screams
Everything has changed
The man I was
Took his life
Cut the chains
Of his shattered life
The man I’ve become
Still feared by some
Still shunned
Thoughts still overrun
Emotions still burn
Lessons needing to be learned
Everything has changed
My soul feels drained
My heart stained
But it’s easier now
I’m no longer pained
No longer am I hidden
Silence lies forbidden
I live each day
Without shame
Taking blame
Everything has changed

About the Author
Markus Fleischmann is a free thinker and writer who lives in Texas. For me, writing down my thoughts and experiences is an outlet, a release of emotions that I feel, and experiences and emotions of others. I am an empath which grants me the gift of heightened feeling in my surroundings. As a dreamer, free thinker and a peddler of words it brings me such great joy to be able to share this gift with others.
