Relapse And Remission

There is no cure for grief

They say time gives relief

I take two steps forward

Then it’s three steps backward

Then a few more ahead

Cry myself to sleep in bed

The sun shines, been so long

Then I hear our song

Let go of the sadness

Succumb to the madness

Memories that cause me pain

Some put a smile on my face

And I yell and I scream

Truths, lies, all I believe

They say I’ll be okay

I tell them not today

Happy moments are the worst

I want to share with you first

It’s a vicious cycle

Survival and denial

Addition and subtraction

Relapse and remission

Been A Long Time

Been a long time since I picked up the phone

But tonight, the demons have come back home

And damn, I’m not feeling all that strong

And I really don’t know if I want you to say hello

My hands are shaking at what you’ll be thinking

First thing you’ll ask is have I been drinking

I’m about to hang up when it starts ringing

You pick up and I say I’m sorry, I don’t know

And you say it’s okay, tell me what’s on your mind

And we sit in silence as the words are too hard to find

And I ask, do you ever wish we could hit rewind?

Before there was a me and you, before the scars

Damn, I was happy before it all got messed up

I was okay before we fell in love

And I always believed I was enough

Now I can’t unbreak my heart

And I know there’s nothing you can say

I’m trying to get through this day

Trying to believe something good will come my way

And I’m sorry I picked up the phone

Just feeling like the darkness has taken over the light

And it’s so hard to keep on fighting but I fight

And I really don’t know why I called you tonight

Guess I was hoping to feel a little less alone

I have started trying to find something different to try to stand out so some of my posts I’m making storybooks with.

Hope you enjoy.
