In the first few moments of being awake, I heard a voice say:

Let the keloids forget about itching, about creating pus

I expanded on this line of thought- let the hands forget (about the habit memory program of) scratching

I allowed this and created this in the first place

It’s an addiction, habit that I fall into when I get stressed up and for the keloids to get inflamed

And along the same line, let the body forget about fear shame guilt or for that matter anything! Anything that does not serve me now.

These are all a response to a certain past

I consciously make the decision to stay and be/ in the present
