"If you could see yourself in a mirror, no...
If you could see yourself through someone else's , no that's not it..."

If you were someone else,
standing in front of you.
Seeing yourself, glasses all blurry-
sitting in the corner of a bright hall,
lights beaming down.

If you're someone else
looking down at them,
and they're (you) looking up at you.
Eyes shiny from late night cries and times
when everything was or seemed
like it was falling apart.

Would you give yourself a hug?
Tell yourself, "It will be alright."
Would you throw yourself over your shoulder,
place your body on the hospital bed
and tuck yourself in?

It's time to go to sleep.
It's time to grow yourself
from the weeds.

It's time to leave
this chapter behind.
