Just In Time

 

Among the grit

The tears 

The nights spent alone

With just a screen 

For company

I almost thought I'd had it

Didn't think I'd see day again

Vision clouded by hiding 

Me from myself

They say 

If you dream you're falling 

And you hit the bottom

You're never going to wake up

Just in time 

I opened my eyes

I told you ►

Couldn't put it any better than Cynthia - compelling poetry Jon that come from that raw place inside. I wonder how many of us on here have taken a similar fall - so glad you survived it xxx
