Open your heart, and find the courage
To reclaim your life, and take a chance
Your journey to recovery won't be easy,
But with hard work, you will advance.
To get some clarity, start reflecting
On the steps that lead to success
Analyze your past, and take perspective
To make sure that you can address.
Be mindful of the thoughts you’re thinking
The kind words that your heart will speak
You have the power to create a new story
Where emotional abuse can’t leak.
Forgive yourself, and those who hurt you
You have the strength to move on
Let your heart be filled with compassion
And begin the journey of your soul’s song.
Surround yourself with people who understand
Those who can help you heal
Take the time to love and nurture
Your physical, mental and spiritual appeal.
Don’t forget to practice self-care
Make sure to put yourself first
Forget the past and soar to the future
A journey that your dreams will burst.
Do what brings you joy and pleasure
Let your happiness guide the way
Don’t forget that love and laughter
Will help you through each passing day.
Develop your own set of boundaries
To keep you safe and strong
Be honest with yourself and others
And live with integrity, all life long.
Continue to be confident and brave
Your future will be bright and clear
You can overcome emotional abuse
Your courage will never disappear.
Reach out for help and support
Talk to those who truly care
Your journey of healing will be hard
But you know you can make it there.
Trust that the power of resilience
Will help you overcome the pain
Your strength will carry you forward
To a place of joy and gain.
Build a healthy support system
To guide you in your time of need
Your family, friends and counselors
Will help your heart to heal and feed.
Let go of any guilt or shame
And listen to your inner voice
Take the time to nourish your body
And make sure you make the right choice.
Take the steps to be independent
And bravely take a stand
Rebound from emotional abuse
With courage in your heart and hand.
Be patient and kind to yourself
As you recover day by day
Your journey to healing will be long
But with help, it will not be astray.
Learn to trust yourself and others
And rebuild your life anew
You will have the courage and strength
To break free from the abuse that's been due.
Your resilience will help you grow
Your journey of healing will start
You can overcome emotional abuse
By simply trusting your heart.
Unlock your recovery, open your heart
Rebounding from emotional abuse starts
Fighting the upset that still hurts you so
Family and friends will help with the show
Perserverence to find peace in life's path
A new dawn for a future at last
Forgiveness for mistakes made way back when
Recovery rests in a healing friend
Advocate yourself and find people who care
To rebound from emotional abuse, you must dare!
Unlock your resilience, release the pain.
Live and grow through your emotional drain.
Shake off the misery, when push comes to shove.
Give yourself permission, to love and be loved.
Strive for support, find a safe space to rest.
Learn how to cope, practice self-care as your quest.
Help will come soon; pick yourself up from the dust!
Reclaim your life’s spirit and never give up trust.

I'm not a Vocal Newbie (not that there's anything wrong with that), and I'm technologically comfortable. But, I'm also perhaps too comfortable. I think I know, even if I know that I don't know what I don't know, I still think I know more that I do know.
