An old memory
of beautiful music
tainted by the knowledge
that the skill was learned
under duress.
I scream internally and laugh out loud
Welcome  to  my  life  you must be  so proud
The threat that I'm gonna relapse is hanging over me
Like a dark cloud
I shiver knowing that I could fall
Off the small ledge I have made myself
At any moment I could take up
The blade that has done so much damage
I'm okay
For now
But will I be a week from today?
I have been clean for three weeks. I hope I can make it longer.
