Unearthing the tomb...

I shut myself off for so long to numb the unhappiness of my marriage. My longings, desires, hopes, and dreams were buried under six feet of misery. Now that I've begun to exhume my heart, old demons are clawing their way to the surface as well.

I know them for the monsters they are by the poison they spit into my mind. Insidious stuff, it eats me up from the inside out until I can't think straight, and I begin to believe the most ridiculous things. Sadly, I've been known to sabotage myself time and again because of it.

I refuse to fall into the clutches of these old demons again. I know the taste of their poison well, and I will not allow it to undermine my happiness anymore.
