Light House.
Everything I have ever known is slowly circling the drain.
Slowly flushing out this life so I can start a new.

why?

Things are starting to make sense.
The world is less of a blur.
I can rebuild overtime.

But i'm no longer welcome here.
I am forced to move on.
Told this is not my home.
Told to be on my way.
That I will be forcibly removed.
If it's not tonight it will be soon.

And the anxiety never went away or lessened.
It was just refocused.

I want time to breathe.
But, you can't give it to me.
You're ready to rush forward.
Your mental health unchecked.

Lying to your lifelines.
Laying your failures on me.
Without me you'll be free.
Without me you'll be no different then you were before.

But I'm leavening.
My next step may be good for me.
You'll stay here, keeping the monsters at bay.
Without ever knowing you've boarded a ship to your future.
And you have your demons as your ships crew.

I will set a beacon fire.
From a far I shall light the way.
I shall wait for your arrival.
Here upon the beach, facing out.
Waiting to see you finally get free.

Nothing here to comfort me.
Wrapped up warmly in my dismay.
