I sit here staring at you
The light shining, illuminating over you
You.. are… breathtaking
I see you and think of all the times we have had
I reminisce the good the bad
So many moments together
We were friends
We were enemies
Spent too much time together
Our time apart brought me a clarity I longed for
In this moment I cling to it
Our time apart has made me feel more like myself
It’s a feeling that I welcomed after so many years
I look at you, fearful of a weak moment
It will take only one to fall back into you
I steady myself
Lift my hand
Push you away
Relapse is not happening today
I’m stronger now
Than I was with you
I stand
Leave the bar and don’t look back
There is somewhere else I’d rather be
