Other side

Alan R

I meet myself 

After all I allowed

Myself to go through 

Fictional thoughts 

I entertained 

And destroyed myself through 

But now on the other side

The waters are calm

Yet moving enough 

That I don't have to row

This boat that barely survived

The oars resting, revived

From the crises I allowed

For the storms I chose

But now on the other side

I strike a tranquil pose

And in the here and now

I sigh at all that's gone

Fewer demons hide

In the light of this other side.
