HOLDING
HOLDING
By C Wynter
The lies come more easily when I mask the feelings,
On the path of recovery, they see but for me, still reeling,
I tell myself I'm getting better, enough time has passed,
I should have some of it together, yet why do these emotions last?,
I try to keep it close, yet I find the weakness within the cracks,
Such a sight to behold, as I scramble forward so as to not stay back,
Time limits are a choker, anxiety rises within the confusion,
So feeling like a failure, I stand in the midst of the destruction,
So pray and swallow your pills, pray and don't swallow more pills ok?,
A battle of wills, with a pain that won't go away,
So I lie, on the path of recovery I am just folding,
A war of mind every day, yet still I am holding.
