Celebrity status

Hate is a strong word
To carry around indefinitely
Letting go and letting be
Some afflictions can be lifted
I may even find in my heart
To open up some flashbacks

I'm done with bitterness 
I'm done with loathing 
I'm done with retribution 

It took a while to forgive
Ultimately to not forget 
To heal my own wounds
For the imposter I could see 
What was once sacred 
Now worlds of opposites 

I'm done with resentment
I'm done with aversion 
I'm done with hostility

You may think I still sulk
I got up and rose to the party 
A spectacular occasion
Thanks to you and some more
I have my own celebrity status
The shy girl got her voice

From the heart
Char
