That numbness of the pain,
Still is there every day of my life,
Turning over and over about itself,
Contained and far away.
But lately,
More and more,
I feel it creeping back,
Growing bigger.
Maybe it because I have started to fear it.
Afraid to let it take me over again.
I tell myself,
"I'm happy."
But looking in the mirror they all sound so small.
So unimportant and unreal.
Sometimes it cracks the protective shell,
That I placed around me to keep me safe.
This my worst hell,
And for some reason, you keep calling it,
The slow steps of recovery.
