Take the First Step

It creeps up on you, others can see it though. A rollercoaster lifestyle, a life without a flow. Don’t eat, don’t sleep, don’t do a lot, I can’t explain, it’s this thing I’ve got. Forgot how to smile at one stage, And would break into unruly rage. I scared myself to seeing him though, To regain my lifestyles flow. I talked, I cried, he listened to me, Once more I felt I could be free. A chemical concoction to help me through, Re-balancing the conscious ‘til back to new. It will always be there, deep in my mind But I have stored it away, difficult to find. The smile’s returned and I’ve gained control, The longer you leave it, the bigger the hole.
