Find It

Don't go back, just remain as 
you are now,
Just remain where you are 
now.
Try to harden that which 
pumps blood,
That which beats every 
moment. 
Go back not to that place, but 
those habits.
Those habits that aided you in 
the darkness.

You know them very well don't 
you?
"I" am one of those habits. 
The other you must re-
discover.
Will you take this challenge up 
or will you
Continue to falter and gain 
disappointment?

You've found "me": this which 
you pen.
This that you thought of, this 
that you share.
Please keep me close, don't 
push me away.
You've found me, now search 
and find the other.

Find it.
