This contest will be on the POSITIVE aspect of how
eliminating denial brought about your freedom. Finally allowing you to see what was true and really there instead of what you wished or hoped was there.
No prewrites
20 line limit
any style
Next contest will be about how your denial trapped
you in your situation, should you wish to wait for
that one. (The negative side of denial)
Have fun but hurt no one along the way...
THE POWER OF CHOICE
It's all in the choices
that in end we made
That brings us to the truth
or the lies that are just fake
It's all in REactions
to actions that do come
By the courage to stand strong
or place us on the run
It's all in the way
that we live life everyday
That helps us all to grow
or in same place, stay
It's all in the knowing
that denial is no friend
That our new future waits
just up there, round next bend

This looks like a very good contest, Eddy
We all need to take a look at ourselves objectively. Your contest coming up seems so as well.
I'm bookmarking this while I think about what I could write.
