Considering where I came from
Where
What it was
I’ve come a long way
The horror
The pain
The hurt
Hurt, hate, and anger
So, I developed
Developed coping mechanisms
Is this the naissance of evil?
Time heals only with deliberate application
Of religion
Religion is a work in progress
God!
The religion I came from
That developed in my nascent environment
Religion is a kind of feed-back loop
Developing along with me
As I apply religious principles and develop
So those principles develop
Without religion I would be lost
And I am so close to being lost
A person’s enemies are of one’s own household
Religion and regeneration
Rebirth–born again
Hope
Come a long way
What I came from
What I was
Hope
What I am now
