Thank You Stranger

I was ready to let go Ready to give up I met you and nothing changed Just another note to write Another goodbye to choke out But there’s something in you And it spread to me And kept me standing on my feet I hadn’t seen the sun for months Everything eclipsed by the knife in my gut I couldn’t shake the things I felt But you finally got me to yell for help

Many of us feel like "letting go" from time to time. I'm just glad you hung around long enough to write this life and love-affirming poem. Carolyn
