sometimes ~original pre-sobriety poem

in poetry •  7 years ago 

sometimes
you gotta fall down a few times
gotta get up a couple more times
gotta lay down at night

sometimes
i like to play on my swing
see how high i can fly
i fall right in the grass
hit my butt and that's okay
that's okay cuz it doesn't hurt anyway
it's only in my mind when i get sad at night

sometimes
you gotta let yourself cry
you have to let yourself free sometimes
let yourself pee outside
maybe climb a tree
maybe drink some tea
maybe find a friend
that'll be there till the end
sometimes
