Today I realized...
I ranaway from my pain
left my broken home behind
My family the farthest thing from my mind
I found myself
I found love
A little peace of mind
In the process severing all family ties
In one day I decided to walk away
That was 2 years ago
Today I realized how much I miss my father
How much I want to hug my mother
How much I want to stay up late with my oldest brother
Talking and acting immature like we used to
Fighting with my youngest brother about everything
I never thought the day would come
the day I realized through all my pain
I've caused all of you the same
For 2 years you've missed me
Wondered if I'm okay
or if I just tell you I am so you'll go away
Today I realized how much all of you mean to me
My Father,my Mother,my Brothers
For 16 years you were all I knew
In one day I forgot about you
I don't regret my decision
I can't say I'd change much
It has taken alot of time to come to this conclusion
I would have told you... I love you more often
I would have forgiven sooner
Today I realized if it wasn't for how I have been raised
I wouldn't be this person
I wouldn't have all that I have
I wouldn't be this strong
I would have never lastest this long on my own
Today I realized the gifts my parents gave to me
My fahters wisdom and love
My mothers intuition and determination
I'm stubborn just like both of you
There's so many more...
These gifts you've given to me
All these little pieces of you,my childhood
They've made me who I am today
Today I realized the joy life can bring
The meaning of my family
We have all made decisions
We've hurt each other
But all our past mistakes make us stronger
I stand here today no longer jaded by the past
I am humbled and greatful
I want to say Thankyou...
~This is dedicated to my family...I left them 2 years ago,but really even before that.I found out that I am going to be an aunt today and somehow knowing new life is entering our family made me realize all that I have and shadowed over all that has been wrong in the past.

Strange how walking away from something makes a person realized what they've lost or how much the things we run away from affect us.
I've run from my past. I've run from my demons. No matter how far or fast I run, its always with me. It's who I am. It's a part of me.
