All I want is one day Where my veins don't itch below the skin Where I don't crave the bites All I want is one day Where I don't have to think about it If only so I could clear the hair from my skin without temptation All I want is one day Where I don't have to fight with myself through every moment To indulge in life's simple pleasures with an undistracted mind All I want is one day Where the spiders don't crawl beneath my skin And I cease searching for scars that have since faded All I want is one day But I would take an hour- Or even a minute... Simply to be free of the spiderwebs that splay across my skin.

Spider Bites
All I want is one day Where my veins don't itch below the skin Where I don't crave the bites All I want is one day Where I don't have to think about it If only so I could clear the hair from my skin without temptation All I want is one day Where I don't have to fight with myself through every moment To indulge in life's simple pleasures with an undistracted mind All I want is one day Where the spiders don't crawl beneath my skin And I cease searching for scars that have since faded All I want is one day But I would take an hour- Or even a minute... Simply to be free of the spiderwebs that splay across my skin.
350 days clean today and I still crave it. January, 2020
