A cloud passes over the glowing moon.

And the darkness settles.

I was reminded of the shitty things I shouldn't have let in.

The shadows of the people who hurt me.

The groaning voices of all the ones I harmed.

The shouting of memories that say I am not good enough.

Each one a tendril gripping and capturing my heart.

The clouds drift and the white shine comes through.

I breathe and remember the good things I do.

This is not easy and I can't let my mind drift.

I take note of the ones I love and think of what I'd miss.

Midnight is when I should rest.

Unfortunately, my demons take heed

They try to bring me down.

But with a little clarity, they can't have me.
