For the first time in a long time
I can sit in a room by myself
and be content.
For the first time in a long time
I can look at this face in the mirror
and accept it.
For the first time in a long time
I can be alone,
but not lonely.
In a list

interesting write. very profound, but simple at the same time. i like it.
i really like the last stanza. it's a a very strong ending. however i was looking for something a bit longer in this contest.
thanks for entering and goodluck
