doesn’t arrive with flowers
sun spots first light
I found mine somewhere
nearer the floor
hazy rock bottom
after night years of pain
hating everything
starting ending with me
& somewhere
to the left of nothing
the right of dead love
after not before
that high wall of despair
sat a small dark knot
I grabbed held on tight
sucked it into my belly
made it through those last
pitch night hours
the knot sits here now
prodding life into love
just carry on
just carry on
lets see what happens next
& that is all we need
