Unraveling The Tangle

Every step of Evelyn's journey is outwardly expressing the internal journey she is on. It makes sense that she has found herself immersed by mother nature, being taken deep into a forest that she didn't know existed. Just like the beautiful mess of her heart, the branches and vines are tangled beneath a thick canopy blocking out the light. Just like the pain of her past, the trees stand tall, deeply rooted in the ground. Just like the smell of the oxygen-thick air, it is all too fresh in her mind. She does not realise that by every step she takes she is subconsciously agreeing to clear out the forest-like mess until her heart can be seen bright as day once more. But the real healing comes when we start to ask questions.

How can I be living in darkness,
When the light is all around me?
Like feeling alone
In a room full of people.
Is that all it is-
A feeling... thoughts in my head?
Do I really have the power to change that?
Do I have the courage to choose to?

Can I?
Should I?
Will I?
