Putting On My Skates

Feeling hopeless
?I lay frozen?
No rescue in sight?
Power within?
Drained like my battery?
On a bitter cold February morning?
Asking for Help?
I rose?
With trembling hands?
Reached out?
The ice still blocking?
Veins to my heart?
Hide run away?
An option long abandoned?
One meeting?
Share?
Two meetings?
Listen?
Three meetings?
Understand?
Went to bed grateful?
Love flowing now again?
