Doing whatever I can to refrain
from seeking solace in familiar pain.
Mourning old habits and comforting lies.
Helpless, I watch as a piece of me dies.
Struggling to keep from turning away,
accepting that it has to be this way.
I hope it helps my broken mind to mend,
but still I know that this won't be the end.
I was looking through an old folder full of, mostly unfinished, poems and found this one that I had completely forgotten.
