My spirit
Buried these eighteen years
Under words
Under feelings
Under this that I indulged in
Has been freed at last
Dreaming now comes easily
Hoping no longer distant
My future becomes a reality
When before it held no truth
Thoughts align themselves
Before they were uneven
Uneven and grotesque
Free are tears
No longer hidden
Beneath glassy eyes
And morbid emptiness
No longer do my emblematic
Words mean
"Take me, use me"
But rather
"Know me, understand me"
When a star winks out
A constellation
Scatters
When I let myself go
I finally was able to see
On a clear night.

This is my favorite of yours so far. I love how it goes from the need of feel to the need of feel and fulfillment. And that line about the constellations is ace.
