Friday
Once my favorite day
Now
The day I dread facing
Most.
Weekend
Once a time of freedom and recovery
Now
An empty pit in my stomach
Without YOU.
Morning
Once, smelled of opportunity and choice
Now
It's hard to breathe, the air still filled with the dark smoke of
That morning.
Hope
Once felt easy, playful, and achievable
Now
An exhausting brutal battle of death and
LIFE.
My Promise
From the moment you were stolen
Until
The last one of you comes home
Still stands.
