Since I Fell Away

today marks six months since i fell away what seemed impossible at first only gets easier each day loosening my grip on the hands of my past that refuses to hold me so i give up at last i've forgotten yesterday i'm ignoring tomorrow just holding on to the present and letting go of the sorrow if you asked, i'd say i wouldn't know how i manage to sleep at night having heard myths of all the misery i see, now, it's not so bad, i'm alright and now it's time for bed blank, empty, & cold the days of my dreaming are now days of old

Hmm, that does not sound very good dear lady!? Hello my talented and gifted poetic friend Melanie D.! Does this falling away mean, off the wagon? Or, away from the bad pllaces near the wagon? Or, from a love gone bad? If in the latter two cases, then, I would say that this is a good thing!!? If only, you can persevere and be patient!!? Then, sooner than later, the sun shall once again shine brightly upon your soul! Much Warmth To You Always, Wrapped Amid Endless Blessings, John!:)
