A lonely time 

In an abyss, completely broken,

Fear and loneliness my only companions;

You came to search for me. 

Afraid to face you,

I ran away as fast as I could;

You still followed me. 

Panting and shivering,

I shouted “You won’t understand”;

You hugged me. 

Holding my hand and smiling,

You made me take a step;

I cried. 

You picked me every time I fell,

Reminded dreams long forgotten;

I started to become me again. 

We are near the ground now,

And I will start writing my unfinished song.

It was Sunday, freaking cold. I was holding my cup of early morning tea with my headphones plugged in, thinking about what had happened in the week. It was a sad week, and that's all I was constantly thinking about.
