Leaning upon distant thoughts
Ones that allow her to drift by
Not allowing her to feel reality
Passing those who care right on by
With each step she relies more and more
Upon the structure that holds her up
Unknowing that it is only causing harm
For she slowly lost the will to stand
Help is right within her everyday
Trying to show her the way
Trying to tell her where to go
Trying to lead her in the right direction
Bumping into walls - blind
Headed the wrong way - deaf
Cold to the touch – numb
She takes no notice
Crevice ahead, the one called life
She trips while mindlessly wandering
No longer being held up
Losing strength, losing the fight
Laying there with nothing to hold
Not realizing help was there for her
Beating within her chest
The whole time
Eyes began to see
Ears began to listen
Emotion began to feel
Once again
Never did she need that crutch
Faith in herself was the key
That was now unlocked
To help her stand alone
Seeing what was needed
Listening to those who love
Allowing herself to respond
Is all the proof in the world
She has stripped off her old personality
While clothing herself with a new one
Burning those crutches she held onto
As she begins to live, love and save.

Isn't it odd that sometimes we're better off without support? We're perhaps strongest when we stand on our own. Good one!

I agree with Morph. It is odd how it can work that way. I am trying to learn how to live with support having gone so long living on my own. It is an odd feeling to me having support. Mayhaps I will write upon it. |
