Lived in my mind and head for longer than I care to remember
Coming out of that dark place was work and still work at it
A ritual that makes somethings and people fall into place
Others disappear into the air, better off there
You never know what is happening in another's heart or mind
You learn to leave it and them alone unless they ask
Sometimes you do know when something is terribly wrong
The light is sometimes hard to accept but truth is the scare in the dark can come at any time
Once you push through and battle back and decide your worth in this world
That is when you listen more carefully and do your very best to be an exemplary human being in a crazy mixed up world
Hoping your dark place ends earlier than mine did
You find out just how strong, caring, and resilient you are
How loving and caring you are makes you special
