Some people are haunted houses
Ghosts hiding behind cerebral folds
Ready to jump out when you least expect them
Some people are possessed by the past
By things done to them
By people long gone
By phantoms of could have beens
Some people are haunted by dark energy
By feelings they don’t understand
By hostile voices and evil thoughts
By shifting shadows of despair
Some people are trapped in a mental landscape of quicksand and land mines
Step
by
(tentative)
step.

!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe recovery is the slowest exorcism…
Clear out the cobwebs
Let in the light
Slowly, steadily removing the buildup
To see
through the windows of the soul
Clearly,
for the first time.
