recovery

 


recovery has bestowed
two gifts upon me

I neither experience
boredom or
loneliness

no approval can build
me

no disdain can break
me

I am my own best
friend

my own best
company

far too many people
running desperately
in circles

like gerbils on a
flaming wheel

like a gun turned
the wrong way

like a cure searching
for a disease

seeking an answer
that already
exist

but rejected for
it's simplicity

we see

we think

we hear

we feel

we breath

we live

the answer right
in front of
us

here
now

this
second

grab
it

hold
fast

because before
you know it

the
bones
will
sing
