Image for the poem (Never) Done

(Never) Done

I remember when I was down
Out and all about
Flying high in my own doubt

Another sip and then I lay back
Wake up quick, don't replay that

What's done is done and I can't change that now

But it catches up at some time
Some time I had to look into my own eyes
And see the things I'd done last night

I can forget, but they don't disappear
I won't forget, they always stay right here

What's done is done, it's going nowhere, always right here on my mind

But I don't have to drown it anymore
I don't have to let it weigh me down
Time to climb up off the floor

Cause I'm not thirsty anymore
I can finally put it all away and let it go now
What's done is done, but I'm not who I was before

3 years clean in 5 days. That's my inspiration. I can let myself feel okay about that now. What's done is done.
