Painfully beautiful. Excellent reading as well. I can feel the emotion. Loved it.

LOVE THIS - I especially appreciate the audio, as I am legally blind. I wish more writers recorded audios of their work. 🙏

I am the victor, not the victim… great quote to wrap up your poem… my perspective it’s it takes a real issue to come to terms that it’s not the outside help that truly makes the shift, it’s when we address our own ego and find the courage to release the baggage that keeps the victim behaviors so loud in our brains. Nice Post!

The way these feelings are described in poetry is so intense!

The way you can manage your own emotions right now!

I liked it, I don't let him overwhelm me,

That phrase is so powerful 💯✍️

Thanks Scott, it's always a pleasure to read you.

So beautifully written and each word resonates souch. Just few days ago, was discussing with my therapist about the inner warrior and the inner critic, and we decide where the focus go.. this perfectly described that conversation. Thank you for sharing this 🙏☺️

This is beautiful poetry, Scott. I can feel what you feel in the words. It's amazing that you redirect those feelings when they come.

Very relatable Scott.

I realized healing is a lot of recognizing the wounds of the past but not letting them decide the rest of the story

I don't know how you resonate with us so perfectly..but to acknowledge your inner emotions is important too..thank you for letting us know that we are not lost and can redirect that energy in something positive ✨️
