Reborn

April 21, 2021

A young girl at birth

With a large world ahead


Born with growing plight

And demons in her head

How will she be able to cope and fight?


She ventured off to find her rhythm

Within the sway of the trees

And ripples in the water

But the bottle and needle were the new revision


Her reservoir of fear tied gnarly ropes around her soul

And pulled her far into the abyss to lose her vision.


One here

Two there

There are no more loopholes ahead


In the depths of the night

Her body reached a final decision

The unification of body and mind decided to follow their own beat


The appreciation for the one who saved her once never died with her

The love she harbored never died with her

All of the good was interrupted,

But put up a good and short fight.


In the flick of a light switch,

Her demons were washed away on her journey to the spirit in the sky

When she reunited with her rhythm

She was reborn


A new lifetime of pure bliss

How could she ever resist.

I want someone to read this and gain something from it. There's a lot that comes with death of someone you are close to and love. Especially when addiction plays a part. When that day comes, peace is in the future.
