Freedom. This piece means a lot to me. I didn't even know it would end up being something so close to me. Raina, flying free in the sunlight. Open skies... Lyra happily watching a once broken spirit take flight again in joyous bliss.
There's a lot of personal feelings in this work.
My spirit was broken. I was broken. I was lifeless at one point. I can count on one hand the amount of people who gave a shit about my life. And Lyra was right there. Unashamed to be cradling the broken trash that was me in her arms so to speak. She didn't care that my eyes were lifeless. She didn't care that I was half dead inside. She didn't care that I had no spirit left inside me. I was rotting away in the trash where I was thrown, and she just stayed there with me.
Every day she worked with me. Every day she kept my eyes forward when my gaze would fall back behind me.
Every day she listened to me cry in pain, not just emotional...it literally was in my body, this wretched pain like venom in my blood.
Every single day this woman pulled my lifeless self through the mud. It was like she was desperately trying to save my light that I had all but decided wasn't even lit anymore.
My Husband. Lyra. My Best Friend IRL. And a couple of others saved my life. I don't think I'd have ever harmed myself physically.... But I never would have re-lit my warm and bright flame inside my heart if it hadn't had been for them. I would have laid there, and withered away until I was someone unrecognizable.
So yes, this piece means a lot. Raina Has wings now...and she's going to fly.
My Love will not be taken for granted ever again.

*Hugs back* Honestly, thank you so much. It's so nice that you took just a moment to comment those words of encouragement! And for whatever you went through, I'm glad you're here, kindness in tact. Sometimes what hurts us can make us guarded, distant and mean. Let's do our best going forward! <3
I felt you may have needed the encouragement. Remember the cracks are just important as the healing. They are lessons to remember. Thank you so much for your kindness. You are quite right. We all lash out at our loved ones unintentionally.. But they are still there despite the claws and the arrows.. Just like Lyra. <3
