It Has Been Years Since Thoughts of Death Crossed My Troubled Mind
It Has Been Years Since The Terror Of Another Day Faced Me After a Sleepless Night
I Stopped My Medication
And…Three Poems Tumbled Out
I Stopped My Medication
Pulled My Car To The Side
And …Cried Quietly and Modestly
For Before Me I Saw A Sunset For The First Time Again
I Know…If The Terrors Return
I Can Hide Again
In the Frozen Mercy of Medication
And I Know…
I Know Again
I Will Return From The Shadow Land
The Land Of The Dry Mouth…
And Frozen Eyelids
And...Will See The Sunset
And,,,Will Feel... Yes Feel...And Feel
And Will...Yes...Love!

I feel compelled to inform my great non audience of these blogs that this particular work is not the result of prior states of being or feelings which I might have experienced.
