Steps to Recovery

Steps to recovery
It is essential to make the first move
Unless I am already in the process
I will get lost at the starting point.

A truly cowardly act
An escape from an inevitable fact
But not until I retrieve my self-consciousness
Not until I deny this darkness.

Steps to recovery
It turns bleeding into a part of breathing
When I have so much to live for
I think of so many reasons to leave this reality.

A panacea well hidden
An attempt to achieve the forbidden
But not when there is quietness in my ear
Not when I am still here.

Steps to recovery
It involves a white building and an artery
Although I struggle to embrace tomorrow
I am ready to reach the last stage.

A desire for closure
An obsession for an immediate departure
But not before I can control these thoughts
Not before I become yours.
