into the light

when

When I am not crying, I am pretty good company...
when I am not tangled up in why questions..
I can be fun to hang out with.
When I can look in a mirror and smile at myself
then I can say she's ok people.
When you test me for reaction
I can smile and know I let it go.
When the smile is not bitter but real
then I know I am over you.
When I step forward
I'm not looking back with regret.
When tomorrow arrives
 I will shrug off my past and embrace the new beginning.
When I think of myself as a person
I can see someone worthy of love.
