Recovery

And something beautiful happensWhen we say it out loudWhen we acknowledge our pain When we are open enough With those around us To trust that they will stay And sit with us in our darknessWe do not belong in that placeWhere we are constantly Running from our truths We can only tell the truth nowWe can only hold our hands upSay enough is enoughAnd own our mistakes Forgive ourselves for our demonsWe did not choose themPerhaps they chose usPerhaps they sought us outRegardless, we will fight themOn the other side of everythingThat we thought we knew About ourselves About our lives About this world,There is a better way of livingWe must trust thatAnd take A leap of faith It is in our darkest momentsThat we find what we are made of
