To Tom

After the rain of tears the memories will vanish,

I will no longer remember you and I

I will remember back to a simpler time

Where I didn't know who you were.

After the storms of panic attacks have ended,

I will feel the calm calling out my name

For once I don't feel so ashamed to be in this body

After the cloud of voices have gone,

I know that I will be safe

And I can rebuild my temple from the ground up this time

And I can dictate where this one will end

After the floods of depression have demolished everything,

I know I will have the strength to start again.
