I am the sky

I am not you rolling wheels

I am the highway

I am not your carpet ride

I am the sky

I am not your blowing wind

I am the lightning

I am not your autumn moon

I am the night

-Chris Cornell, I am the highway

Don't underestimate me

Don't patronize me

Don't make me small

I am the ocean in a drop of water

I am huge, I am the real deal

Don't fuck with me

I'm moving on by myself

I am strong enough to handle anything

I am so much bigger and better than this situation

I deserve so much more.

I woke up last night to this song In my head

I felt both paralyzed and frantic

Wanted to run, felt a void of emptiness and pain, wanted to fill it up with any substance I could find to make myself feel good. I felt what it was like to be an addict. I understood some peoples' need to constantly run around from place to place, running away from their pain.

Dreamt of a lion and a lioness playing together

And channelled Chris Cornell

He said love me the way I am

Free and wild

Love me, accept me no matter what

I say I love myself the way I am

Wild and free

I accept myself no matter what

This is about loving myself so fiercely, moving on from the liars and cheaters and from victim mentality. Burning it all away.

Not letting it kill you, your addiction to self destruction. Stopping the cycle of negativity. Seeing it for what it is. Cleansing it, purifying it. Remaining only with yourself.

Breaking free

Ending everything

Knowing everything is done, over

But not seeing the new path yet.
