long aside

don’t be scared

i’ve heard that things grow

from the embers of the past

not knowing

how they’ll turn out

is half the battle

i shared

all these thoughts

before the night fell

giving up

when nothing helped

make sense of it

regretting actions

that played a part

in recovery

making excuses

to justify the end

in my hands

remembering now

is more self involved

then it was before

beside myself

i’ll get better

if it costs me

everything
