As the fear fades away

As the fear fades away and the old familiar sting disappears, I remember everything I have undergone. It still hurts but now I believe I can manage sometimes.
What I have become through the experiences and what's ahead does not torture me anymore... All those who went away and those yet to come...
The darkness sorrounding me now has a soft light shinning through and telling me it can be done.
If I could start again a million miles away I would keep myself, I would do it all over again, I would find a way.
