Sometimes it’s easier to run to the bandaid
than to take the time to properly care for the wound
Unfortunately, Bandaids don’t heal
I’m hoping that you’ll wake up and realize that soon
The journey through healing doesn’t always feel good
but if you put in the work
You’ll feel much freer than you ever thought you would
It takes a whole lot more than hope
You can be aware and take baby steps
or settle for the quick high you use to cope
what’s your drug of choice?
what helps you escape?
One day you’ll have to face whatever it is you’re running from on your own
There won’t always be a hero wearing a cape
