It’s Always darkest before the Dawn

One day, a friend told me a phrase.

At the time, this phrase didn’t apply to me.

Subconsciously, it remained

At the bottom of my mind, next to oblivion.

Six months later, after my second suicide attempt,

At the depths of my despair,

This little phrase bubbled to the surface.

This little phrase allowed me to take a first step

A first step to ask for the help I needed.

This book was written using a lot of little phrases.

On a rainy day, if just one of those little phrases

Rises to the surface of your conscious thoughts,

This will have proved to be a worthwhile reading.

Thank you all for your nice thoughts
