Finding Myself Again! Poem by Gule Rukhsar

I dream of a starry night,
Full of wonders and amazing sights.
A hope of a new world, a new love;
A love I imagine myself to be.
I am finding myself again,
Loving who I am.

After losing my own self for so long,
It's time I know who I am.
It's been long enough far away from me,
My dreams and desires I had put underneath.
I am finding myself again,
Loving who I am.

It's time I open my jar of happiness,
Find everything I ever wished for.
Build my own reality, my own world,
Free of the shackles that were holding me.
I am finding myself again,
Loving who I am.

I am done with the dark clouds of gloom,
That had me wrapped like a scary dream,
Imprisoning me in an unending limbo,
A state of nothingness beholding me.
I am finding myself again,
Loving who I am.

I am ready to own my identity,
The person in myself.
For the dreams I carry in me,
I am finally ready.
To find myself again,
And love who I am!
