"This is who I am and always will be"
by John M. Crowe
What a cop out to say this is who I am and always will be
because of a dysfunctional family
Years of therapy.
can set one free.
Once one has seen the light
one can't claim ignorance in the fight
The choices now made,
can't be blamed on past decisions that others made,
What a cop out to say this is who I am and always will be
because of a dysfunctional family
One can say “the end” and chose to be free.
However, often such freedom from the dark side takes years of hard work in therapy.
To excuse the lack of personal responsibility
is to keep oneself inflicted by one's dysfunctional family.
To empower oneself,
one must stop giving power to the old self
What a cop out to say this is who I am and always will be
because of a dysfunctional family
Stop waiting for others to repent,
for that's wasting energy that can be better spent.
To still wallow in the pain,
is only empowering it,
and holding on to it
which produces no gain.
It's time for many to say “the ending”,
and now “the beginning”.
What a cop out to say this is who I am and always will be
because of a dysfunctional family
