Poems
Sep 2023
this isn't rock bottom (but it sure feels like it)
Remember that one,
autumn when you
thought you lost
it all?
Your heart was
in the worst,
state it has
ever been
A drug-filled
binge that
took you for
a never-ending
Ride.
You broke down,
and then your
heart broke in
two.
Because you saw
it was
the end of me
and you.
You clutched
the photos
close to your chest
Because you
couldn’t hang on
to what has been.
You felt lost inside,
and you couldn’t
control the downward
spiral
You trapped
yourself in.
Now one year
after and you’ve
let go of false
hopes and illusions.
Scared and
afraid to make
changes and leap
Into the arms of
another soul
again.
Remember that one,
October when you
Thought you lost
it all?
You haven’t hit rock bottom
and I know it feels
like you lost it all.
Keep your head up, kid.
Stand tall.
