The skin of yesterday
The metamorphosis which takes place when you shed the bygones to discover a lighter and liberated you. Sometimes we don’t realise that holding onto the past is making it difficult for us to live in our present.

It felt so heavy wearing the shroud of bygones
the weight pulled down on the glorious days
creating ripples of regrets in the watery eyes
the silvery twilight brought along the darkest greys
her invigorating aura reflected on the embedded scars
feeling emancipated, it was time to evolve
through the layers
she began by peeling away the skin of yesterday
healing her core through magical prayers
what she gained made her face the toughest times
building bridges, looking beyond the fine lines
It is pretty tough to practice the aforementioned when life is giving you experiences which weigh you down. But once you are through with this effort, you will start counting your blessings.
