I remember falling in love -
Feeling attachment rush
Like cold water
Over my head.
It felt like waking up.

Alcohol and vices
Spread their arms and warm
My shivering heart.
I'm dozing back to sleep.
I'm resting again
While time passes.

I remember moments of vulnerability
And honesty
And weakness.
I fell through the surface
And swam through the cold.
I held my breath in the depths
And woke up breathing.
