Returned to Self

What positive events have taken place in your life over the past year?

Waded through the grief

Bandaged the broken heart (it still seeps)

Plodded through the dashed dreams

Said a prayer for the lost (souls, loves, hopes)

Sighed, inhaled

Felt a tiny spark

Of what came before

What came after

Remembered my strength

Found the Muse

Re-bandaged the heart

Put pen to hand

Returned to Self
